MC Based Line Follower Robot

This document describes an MC based line follower robot that uses an 8051 microcontroller along with an IR transmitter and photo sensors to follow a desired path. The line follower robot is used in workshops and factories to transport items along a specific path without tracks. It contains photo sensors and an IR transmitter to detect the line and signal the microcontroller to drive the two DC motors along the path. The system could be improved with ultrasonic sensors to detect obstacles.

MC Based Line Follower Robot

The project consists of a robotic vehicle designed to follow a desired path. This
project uses a microcontroller of the 8051 family along with an IR transmitter
coupled with photo sensing pair to keep track of the path.

The line follower robot is used in various workshops, factories etc. where
unmanned vehicles are used to follow a specific path without using tracks. Our
system is used to design this line following robotic vehicle. It contains a photo
sensor pair consisting of a photo diode and IR transmitter in each one. It helps
the vehicle in finding its path along the line by signaling its microcontroller.
2 DC motors are used which are interfaced with the microcontroller through a
motor driver IC.

The signal from sensors is fed to the microcontroller which then processes it
and then drives the dc motors as programmed based on its input.
The system can be further improved by interfacing with ultrasonic sensors that
will allow the vehicle to detect any obstacles on its path.
