Obstacle Avoiding Car Using Servo Motor | How to use Servo Motor with Obstacle Avoiding Robot

Image
  Introduction: We are glad that you Avoided many obstacles and found a straight path, just like our Obstacle Avoiding Robot. Do you want your Obstacle Avoiding Robot to solve a maze? Do you want to Upgrade your Obstacle Avoiding Robot? Today, we will be making an obstacle-avoiding robot using Servo Motor. Go through this article till the end and make your Obstacle Avoiding Robot using Servo Motor.   What is Servo Motor?  The servo motor is a closed-loop mechanism that incorporates positional feedback in order to control the rotational or linear speed and position. The motor is controlled with an electric signal, either analog or digital, which determines the amount of movement which represents the final command position for the shaft. Components Required: 1)     Arduino Uno 2)     Car Chassis 3)     Motor Driver L298N 4)     Servo Motor 5)     Ultrasonic Sensor 6)   ...

How To Make Line Follower Car with Speed Control | 6 IR Sensor Arduino Line Following Car

Image
It's easy to make a robot that follows a line or smooth curves, but it becomes challenging to design the line follower robot when its track is complex. But we got you covered. Using 6 sensors and speed control of our car, we'll design our fast and advanced line following robot.  Before starting on this advanced project make sure you understand How Does An IR Sensor Works  and have tried making 2 Sensor Line Follower or 3 Sensor Line Follower . Hardware Setup Components Required Arduino UNO Motor Driver L298N 6 x IR Sensors (1 x TCRT5000 & 1 x HX-01) Car Chassis (Base & Motors & Wheel & Caster Wheel) 12V Battery Pack Jumper Cables Car Chassis Assembly Circuit Diagram Note: For speed control remove the tiny black jumper covering ENA and ENB pins on L298N. Make sure they are covered when not using the speed control, else project may not work. Software Setup Reading Analog Values of IR Sensor In our previous projects, we read digital values from IR Sensor - 0 for...

Street Lights Automation | How to Use LDR With Arduino

Image
   Introduction: At some point in our lives, we have wondered how the Street Lights work? Is there a person controlling these lights? Is it timed according to the duration of the day? All of this happens with the help of an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor). In this article, we will be making a project to automate street lights with LDR. So read the article till the end.   Required Components: To make the project you need the following components: 1.       Arduino Circuit Board 2.       LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) 3.       5 ✕ LEDs 4.       5 ✕ 220Ω Resistors 5.       1 ✕ 10k Ω Resistor 6.       Breadboard 7.       Jumper Wires Circuit Diagram: Follow this circuit diagram to patch the circuit. 1.       Digital Pin 4 → Positive End of LEDs 2.  ...

How to Make Traffic Lights Using Arduino Uno | Make Traffic Control System

Image
Introduction Vehicles moving on-road may cause unpredictable accidents leading to colossal loss of mass and life. But what is that causing the orderly movement of Vehicles? Traffic Control System. It is used to avoid accidents and to control the flow of traffic. In this project, we will be using Arduino Uno to control the timings of Led in each direction, and with this, we will guide our vehicles to move towards a particular direction. As we know, in the traffic Control System, the green led refers to move, Red is to stop, and Orange is to get ready or to slow down. We have considered Four Directions, When the Green led of Direction 1 is ON, this indicates that all the vehicles from Direction 2,3, and 4 should move towards Direction 1. Meanwhile, all the other directions i.e. those in which orange or green is not turned ON, have their red led turned ON. Afterward, Orange led of direction 2 turns ON, this indicates that all the vehicles from direction 1, 3, and 4 should get ready to m...
