Simple Line follower with legs

krishnaraj916 · 2010-01-25T01:20:37+00:00

hi , i need serious help in robotics.I actually decided to make simple line following robot with the help of the basic photodiodes and ir lights.<<no microcontroller stuff>>. actually i decided to make it walking for clg xbition. I ust think of a simple mech. a motor rotating a hole in a stick...but some how the idea don't works...pls help me😔😕😕

for lline follower, (or wall follower robots) u NEED microcontrollers dude,
othwerwise it's just a 'follow-nothin' robot!! lol

k but u can make a mechanical robot(without a micro controller) but u have to control it with wires and switches.

if u have no experience in robotics, i suggest u start with mechanical robots first, dont jump higher,

Eat spoon by spoon my dear frnd!

ha ha... who said u cant make line follower without uc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We can make a simple line follower with a single IC7404 and a LM358... I've made 1 and its working awesome

I need help for making a Line follower with the help of microcontroller.....i had already made an RC robot....(with wheels)
any tutorial for making an Line follower.....
Thanks in advance 😀

then with what will u interpret the input and control the output??

i agree the circuit will work to sense the line... but it, on it's own, can't make the robot move...we need a device to control the locomotion of the robot by processing the input, thats where MicroC steps in...
There may be better devices like MicroProcessors, but MicroC is a basic one!!!!

do u mean, u have produced a wired RC or a wireless RC bot?

anyways...abt the line following, i gotta question...have u studied any micro controllers?
if no, then i recommend u to do it, without any delay!

yes, i had studied 8051 microcontroller.....

yes, i had studied 8051 microcontroller.....
then thats good enough,
start off with designing a circuit, and design the specifications of ur bot
then u can get components, with 8051 get all the components essential to run it, like 11.0592 MHz crystal oscillator,(most of the time, they miss it!!)

later, u can start programming a code, for it following a particular line,
and download it with the programmer(the whole kit will be provided by ur college, u can borrow them from ur head of deparment)
after downloading the prog. u can buy other hardware components, like motors, batteries, clamps and screws/buts/bolt, etc. from market and test it, if any prob u can change the code and shoot it back!
or troubleshoot the hardware aspects, like buy a battery which gives more power, or u can change the motor if u feel like doing so! Or u can add devices like transistors in ur circuit, to incease current going to the motor!![now that comes from experience] ^_^

and remember, investment in robotics at this stage is more like utilizing ur money than wasting it(even if u don't succeed!!!)

have fun
^_<
