Line Following Robot

Image
Hello everyone! Many of you might be interested in robotics but you might not know how to begin your first project in robotics. If so then why don't you try the line following robot. Line Following Robot is an autonomous robot which follows the specified track of line drawn with distinct color different from surface. A line following robot is a mobile machine employed to sense and follow the black lines that are drawn on the white surface or black or red line in white surface, white or red line in black surface. Robot must be able to detect particular line and keep following it. Robot follows a certain path controlled by a feedback mechanism. MAKING OF LINE FOLLOWING ROBOT: Components Required: 1.     Arduino 2.     Motors 3.     Motor driver 4.     IR Sensors 5.     Chassis 6.     Connecting Wires 7.     Power Supply Components Overv...

How to use Kiel software to write microcontroller program?

Image
Hello everyone! Many of you might be interested in writing a microcontroller program by using the Keil software but you might be getting problem with it. In this case you are viewing the right topic to solve the problem you are facing. The most popular software tool used for microcontroller programming is Kiel software. This software is an integrated development environment (IDE) which is integrated with a text editor to write, a programs, a compiler to convert the high level language to machine level language. The uvision editor include all standard features like color syntax highlighting and quickly identify errors. The editor is available while debugging. The natural debugging environment helps to quickly identify the errors and correcting the errors in the program. After writing the program in code editor save that file in .asm or .C format depending on which assembler we have chosen.  How to use Kiel 1. Click on the Kiel Vision Icon on the desktop. ...

Apple’s New Solar Powered Spaceship Shaped Head Office

Image
Hello everyone! Everyone know that Apple have been amazing the whole world since the beginning and now the apple has set for "Apple’s New Solar Powered Spaceship Shaped Head Office". Isn't that amazing? Steve Jobs' vision for making " the best office building in the world" is coming to life in Cupertino, California. The Apple Head Office in California In April 2006, Steve Jobs announced to the city council of Cupertino, California that Apple had acquired nine contiguous properties to build a second campus, the Apple Campus 2, to be located one mile east of existing facility. After many delays the project was finally started in 2014 and is scheduled for completion in 2016. The design is like a wheel or some say space ship with a green space in middle of 4 story high rem of wheel. The detailed are mentioned. The proposed Head office Apple's proposed new headquarters-a 2.8-million-square-foot spaceship parked in a verdant man mad...

Why to get into Robotics?

Image
"Why someone should get into Robotics?" is the question that strikes on everyone's mind whether they are interested in robotics or not. The answer to this question is neither simple nor is complicated. That all matters is the little more knowledge and guidance.  So, lets make the question "Why someone should get into robotics" answerable by categorizing these few points. Scope and Future The foremost thing that you should know is  the scope and future of robotics. As automated system is ruling the world now, you can imagine how charming the robotics is. Today's market is not fully mature. One or more software compatibility layers have yet to emerge to allow development of rich robotics ecosystem. So major labor are replaced by robots and those knowing robots. Robotics create a well paid jobs. Robotics makes it possible to manufacture locally in places where environmental and work standards are more respectful than low wages regions. In the country like ours ...

Lets start Robotics

Image
Hello everyone! So you guys might be anxious and willing to develop your own bot being inspired by the knowledge about or interest for the robotics. But we do also know that the fact that "Little Knowledge is Dangerous" but also thinking that "Something is better than nothing" I would like to share about starting Robotics. So lets take that initial step, shall we! This is the 21st century, age of science and technology where most of us have been using and being addicted to these technology while many are working for the overall development of the technologies. Most us know that what the ROBOT is and what it is capable of along with its implementation in the different sectors. We have been viewing many movies such as Transformers, Terminator, I.Robot, Robot, Ra-One, Chappie, and the list goes on where we can see what the robot is capable of and what is robotics. Not only this the few thing we are using such as Digger, Road Roller, etc can also be termed as Robots sin...

Sun Tracking Solar Panel

Image
As the non renewable energy resources are decreasing, use of renewable resources for producing electricity is increasing. Solar panels are becoming more popular day by day. In the country like ours where we face half a day load-shedding it has become the best alternative. Solar panels absorbs the energy from the sun and is stored in the battery. This energy can be utilized when required. Solar panels should absorb energy to maximum extent. This can be one only if the panels are place towards the sun direction. So panels should continuously rotate in the direction of sun.  Sun Tracking Solar Panel Principle The sun tracking solar panel consists of two LDRs, solar panel and stepper motor and Micro-controller. Two light dependent resistors are arranged on the edges of the solar panel. Light dependent resistors produce low resistance when light falls on them. The stepper motor connected to the panel rotates the panel in the direction of Sun. Panel is arranged in such a way that light o...
