Autonomous Field Following Robot
Designed a battery-powered autonomous robot that detects and follows the changing magnetic field generated by a guide wire with AC current from a function generator. Notable hardware functionalities include an autonomous object detection system with automatic braking, DC Motor control through Pulse Width Modulation, magnetic field detection through LC Tank Circuits, and a wireless remote controller using UART to transmit and receive commands to/from our robot.
