The software control system design for robot based on AVR MCU

Abstract

With the fast development of new principle in intelligent control, mobile robot has become the focus in the field of robotics and automation for scholars. Robot competitions are active worldwide and expanded. Based on the competition requirements and rules of 2008 Asia-Pacific Robot Contest, the control software of the competition robot is designed in this paper. In the control system, the AVR single chip computer and C-language are used to achieve the DC motor control, rudder servo control, and path planning of the robot. From an overall perspective, the structure of the program is clear and could meet the control requirements of the competition robot. The program can also meet the expected function.
