The Neon's Line Follower Robot of 2017
The slowest fastest line follower in the ice age.
Firmware: Is the main firmware that controls all the functions of the robot.Software: Is telemetry software for data acquisition from the robot.Eletronics: This keeps all the information about the electronics for the line following robot ‘NoFollow’.Mechanics: Contains the STL files of the robot design.
The firmware project was based on the mbed development platform and was developed in the Atom Text Editor equipped with the Platformio Extension.
main: Controls all functions of the robot.lineReader: Read the outside sensors and check the conditions.Motor: Library for control the power and direction of the motors.PID: Configures PID control on the angular velocity of the robot.QEI: Libary for read the magnetic encoders. Available hereQTRSensors: Library for read the line sensors. Available here.
The eletronic board was developed in the Circuit Maker, a PCB Design Freeware. Project available here.
