Sensor based autonomous color line follower robot with obstacle avoidance

Abstract

This paper introduces the multiple source Multiple Destination Robot (MDR-l) having the ability to choose a desired line among multiple lines autonomously. Every line has different colors as their identities. The robot can differentiate among various colors and choose a desired one to find its target. Unlike any other simple line follower robot, this robot can be considered as a true autonomous line follower robot having the ability to detect presence of obstacle on its path. A powerful close loop control system is used in the robot. The robot senses a line and endeavors itself accordingly towards the desired target by correcting the wrong moves using a simple feedback mechanism but yet very effective closed loop system. The robot is capable of following very congested curves as it receives the continuous data from the sensors.
