Project 30 Line Following Robot

A line following robot is an autonomous vehicle that detects and follows a path, usually a black line on a white surface, using IR sensors. The Arduino processes sensor data and controls motors to keep the robot on track.

Steps to Build

1. Gather Components

  • Arduino UNO

  • L293D or L298N motor driver

  • 2 IR sensor modules

  • 2 DC geared motors + wheels

  • Chassis + caster wheel

  • 7.4V–9V battery pack

  • Jumper wires

2. Assemble the Hardware

  • Mount motors and wheels on the chassis.

  • Fix IR sensors at the front, ~5mm above the ground, spaced so the line passes between them.

  • Connect motor driver inputs to Arduino digital pins, outputs to motors, and enable pins to PWM pins for speed control.

  • Connect IR sensor outputs to Arduino digital pins (e.g., 2 and 4).

3. Upload Arduino Code The logic:

  • Both sensors detect white → Move forward

  • Left detects black → Turn left

  • Right detects black → Turn right

  • Both detect black → Stop
