Obstacle Avoidance Robotics 2AbstractThe obstacle avoidance robotics is used in the detection of obstacles on the path followed by the vehicle and then avoiding the collision. The major aim and objective of this research paper are todetermine a way through which an obstacle robotic vehicle can be designed by the use of hardware specifications such as an ultrasonic sensor, motor drive, microcontroller, and compiler. Robots can be defined as system packages such as automation technology, electrical, and mechanical which can be applied so as to perform numerous tasks for industrial and domestic use. The obstacle avoidance robots are currently being used in dangerous areas where the penetration of human can be dangerous, used in household work such as automatic vacuum cleaning than can clean the room automatically and also applied in almost all mobile robot navigation system. 04 May 2018 2
Obstacle Avoidance Robotics 3INTRODUCTIONThis research paper in the field of mechanical engineering is about how to design an obstacle avoider robotic vehicle. The major aim and objective of this research paper are to determine a way through which an obstacle robotic vehicle can be designed by the use of hardware specifications such as an ultrasonic sensor, motor drive, microcontroller, and compiler. Robots can be defined as system packages such as automation technology, electrical, and mechanical which can be applied so as to perform numerous tasks for industrial and domestic use. An obstacle avoider robotic vehicle is the robotic vehicle that utilizes ultra-sonic sensors for its functionality. The major reason for designing an obstacle avoider robotic vehicle is to make a vehicle track and avoid an obstacle that may be in the path in which the vehicle is moving. The detectionof the object is made possible by ultrasonic sensors which are coupled with motors and the microcontroller. Presently, the obstacle avoider robot vehicle is being applied in places of work such as industries and domestic so as to replace human beings since they are characterized by high performance and are more reliable[ CITATION Sac12 \l 1033 ]. Some of the characteristics of the obstacle avoider robotic vehicle include intelligence, movement, energy, and intelligence. Research QuestionWhat are some of the ways of designing an obstacle avoidance robotic vehicle? This research question is from the field of mechanical engineering and seeks to evaluate different methods in which an obstacle avoidance robotic vehicle can be designed and then analyzing the designs to come up with the optimum design of the robotic vehicle[ CITATION Kur14 \l 1033 ]. 04 May 2018 3
Obstacle Avoidance Robotics 4Literature ReviewRobotics are increasingly gaining popularity in numerous fields in the past decade. Although robotics have been used in many industries for more than 40 years, the most current use of robots include the medical robots which are designed to support surgeons. The major characteristic of the robotic vehicle is the ability to power itself by the use of internal power source such as external sources such as through charging or using rechargeable batteries. The vehicle should also have the ability to move from one position to another within the specified space and this is made possible by the use of walking, rolling wheels, and propelling[ CITATION Par12 \l 1033 ]. Intelligence is also another important ability of the robotic vehicle for it to avoid an obstacle. Intelligence in machines denoted smartness. This is made possible through programming the robot with all the required instructions on how it will operate. The vehicle should also have the capability to sense its surrounding through detecting an obstacle on the path,some of the types of sensors that can be used by the vehicle to understand its surrounding includethe touch sensor, chemical sensor, light sensor, and sonar sensor. The sensor that is most preferred for obstacle detection is the ultrasonic sensor because of its low cost and high ranging capability[ CITATION Gra09 \l 1033 ]. Some of the software and hardware specifications that are used in designing the obstacle avoider robot vehicle include the microcontroller, power source, motor drivers, voltage regulator,and DC motor. The microcontroller is made up of input /output peripherals, memory, and processor core. Each of these components has specific role related to them that make the microcontroller be known as a computer in a chip. The DC motor is a mechanical device that is propelled by the direct current (DC) electrical power[ CITATION Mar17 \l 1033 ]. The voltage 04 May 2018 4
