LFR

This document describes a line following robot and its components. The key components include an ATmega8 microcontroller, IR sensors to detect the line, and an L293D motor driver. An algorithm is provided where the robot follows the line by comparing sensor readings from the left and right sides. If no line is detected, it moves clockwise or counter-clockwise to reacquire the line. Potential applications discussed include use in automated cars for stability control and guidance systems for industrial robots.

INTRODUCTION
What is Line Follower?

Line follower is a machine that can follow a path. The path


can be visible like a black line on a white surface (or vice-
versa) or it can be invisible like a magnetic field.

Why to built a Line follower?


Applications:-
Automated cars running on roads with embedded
magnets(ESC electronic stability control), guidance system
for industrial robots moving on shop floor etc.

BLOCK DIAGRAM
ALGORITHM
1. L= leftmost sensor which reads 0; R= rightmost sensor which reads 0.
If no sensor on Left (or Right) is 0 then L (or R) equals 0

2. If all sensors read 1 go to step 3, else,


If L>R Move Left
If L<R Move Right
If L=R Move Forward
Goto step 4
ALGORITHM
3.Move Clockwise if line was last seen on Right
Move Counter Clockwise if line was last seen on Left
Repeat step 3 till line is found.

4.Goto step 1.

IMPLEMENTATION OF SENSOR CIRCUIT
IMPLEMENTATION OF SENSOR CIRCUIT
The resistance of the sensor decreases when IR light falls on it. A
good sensor will have near zero resistance in presence of light and a
very large resistance in absence of light.
We have used this property of the sensor to form a potential
divider. The potential at point ‘2’ is
Rsensor / (Rsensor + R1).
Again, a good sensor circuit should
give maximum change in potential at point ‘2’ for no-light and bright-
light conditions.
OBJECT DETECTION USING IR

It is the same principle in ALL Infra-Red proximity sensors. The basic idea is to send infra red
light through IRLEDs,which is then reflected by any object in front of the sensor.

This is an electrical property of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) which is the fact that
a led Produce a voltage difference across its leads when it is subjected to light. As if it was
a photo-cell, but with much lower output current. In other words, the voltage generated by
the leds can't be in any way used to generate electrical power from light, It can barely
be detected. that's why as you will notice in the schematic, we are going to use a Op-Amp
(operational Amplifier) to accurately detect very small voltage changes
MOTOR INTERFACE CIRCUIT
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The 8 sensors are connected to PORTA. The L298 Motor Driver has 4 inputs
to control the motion of the motors and two enable inputs which are used
for switching the motors on and off. To control the speed of the motors a
PWM waveform with variable duty cycle is applied to the enable pins.
Rapidly switching the voltage between Vs and GND gives an effective
voltage between Vs and GND whose value depends on the duty cycle of
PWM. 100% duty cycle corresponds to voltage equal to Vs, 50 %
corresponds to 0.5Vs and so on The 1N4004 diodes are used to prevent
back EMF of the motors from disturbing the remaining circuit.
L298 is used as a coil driver instead of l293D L298 as it has current capacity
of 2A per channel @ 45V compared to 0.6 A @ 36 V of a L293D. L293D’s
package is not suitable for attaching a good heat sink, practically you can’t
use it above 16V without frying it. L298 on the other hand works happily at
16V without a heat sink, though it is always better to use one.

APPLICATION
Automated Stability control
Much like antilock brakes work to allow the driver to steer while braking on
slippery surfaces, stability control works to help the vehicle stay on its driver-
intended path in turns. Sometimes a driver will enter a curve too quickly and
exceed the tire's ability to hold the road through the turn. When this happens, the
vehicle begins to spin or skid. Stability control pulsates the brakes of individual
wheels to help "rotate" the vehicle to the driver's intended path.
Steering wheel angle sensor : determines the driver's intended rotation; i.e. where
the driver wants to steer. This kind of sensor is often based on AMR-elements.
Yaw rate sensor : measures the rotation rate of the car; i.e how much the car is
actually turning. The data from the yaw sensor is compared with the data from the
steering wheel angle sensor to determine regulating action.
Numerous studies around the world confirm that ESC is highly effective in helping
the driver maintain control of the car and saving lives and reducing the severity of
crashes.[3] In the fall of 2004 in the U.S., the National Highway and Traffic Safety
Administration confirmed the international studies, releasing results of a field
study in the U.S. of ESC effectiveness. NHTSA concluded that ESC reduces crashes
by 35%. Additionally, Sport utility vehicles (SUV's) with stability control are
involved in 67% fewer accidents than SUVs without the system. The Insurance
Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) issued its own study results in 2004 concluding
that universal use of ESC could save 7,000 lives a year in the United States. In June
2006, the IIHS released a second study showing that up to 10,000 fatal US crashes
could be avoided annually if all vehicles were equipped with ESC[4] The 2006 study
concluded that ESC reduces the likelihood of all fatal crashes by 43%, fatal single-
vehicle crashes by 56%, and fatal single-vehicle rollovers by 77-80%.
APPLICATION
AGV(Automated guided vehicles)

Transbotics Corporation is a publicly held corporation specializing in tailor-made


Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) integrated into a total automation solution.
AGVs are driverless, computer-controlled vehicles that are programmed to
transport materials through designated pickup and delivery routines within a
particular facility (usually a manufacturing or distribution facility) and to transmit
information concerning system status, inventory tracking, and system controls to a
system controller. The Company's AGV system products and services have been
used in a variety of industries, including textiles, automotive, entertainment,
newspaper publishing, and electronics.
These control products are designed to be of such general applicability as to be
incorporated into many kinds of material handling vehicles. Consequently, they
are used not only in custom-designed AGV vehicles and systems, but also to
automate conventional material handling equipment such as forklifts and pallet
jacks.
Automatic guided vehicles can be guided between pick-up and delivery points by
several methods. The traditional method is an inductive loop, called a wire guide
path, which is embedded in the floor of the facility when the AGV system is
installed. The vehicles in a traditional AGV system are equipped with a sensor and
guidance equipment that causes them to follow the guide path. The Company
promotes an advanced laser guidance technology, (LGV), that employs a rotating
laser beam emitted from a vehicle to sweep the room and calculate angles to
detected reflectors. The vehicle's computer uses the data gathered in this manner
to determine its location and progress towards its destination. The vehicle can be
rerouted remotely by computer. In most cases, laser guidance is superior to
inductive loop technology because it permits the end user to alter the designated
routines of AGVs without extensive reconfiguration of the facility.
