Abstract
In order to increase driving comfort, transportation efficiency, vehicles are made artificially intelligent. Autonomous vehicles or
driverless vehicles or making the vehicle drive on its own like humans do is the aim of automobile industry these days. An
autonomous vehicle is a vehicle that drives its self without any human or robotic operators help and has the potential to notice the
obstacles in its path and navigate through it. For vehicle to drive itself, it should have human perception of driving. This
understanding of path to traverse and overcome obstacles in its way is done with the help of computer, microcontroller and
sensors. In this paper, ARM-7 MCU is the main part that makes system driverless. This paper attempts to illustrate an effort
towards low cost atomizing of vehicle. Developed project vehicle can be used as load carrier in industrial areas where path of
location to destination is simple with minimum amount of obstacles.

HRI for Interactive Humanoid Head Amir-II for Visual Tracking and Servoing of...Waqas Tariq
In this paper, we describe the HRI (Human-Robot Interaction) system developed to operate a humanoid robot head capable of visual tracking and servoing of human face through image processing. The robotic humanoid head named Amir-II, equipped with a camera and servoing mechanism is used as the platform. The Amir-II tracks the human face within the field-of-vision (FOV) while the servoing mechanism ensures the detected human face remains at the center of its FOV. The algorithm developed in this research utilizes the capability offered by scientific computing program MATLAB along with its Image Processing Toolbox. The algorithm basically compares the locations of the face in the image plane that is detected from the static face image captured from real-time video stream. The calculated difference is then used to produce appropriate motion command for the servo mechanism to keep track of the human face moving within the range of its FOV.
Design and Construction of Line Following Robot using Arduinoijtsrd
Line following robot is an autonomous vehicle which detect black line to move over the white surface or bright surface. In this paper, the line following robot is constructed by using Arduino nano microcontroller as a main component and consists of three infrared IR sensors, four simple DC motors, four wheels and a PCB frame of robot chassis. The infrared sensors are used to sense the black line on white surface. When the infrared signal falls on the white surface, it gets reflected and it falls on the black surface, it is not reflected. In this system, four simple DC motors attached with four wheels are used to move the robot cars direction that is left, right and forward. The Arduino nano is used as a controller to control the speed of DC motors from the L2953D driver circuit.

Design, Implementation and Control of a Humanoid Robot for Obstacle Avoidance...IOSR Journals
In this paper, the design, implementation and control of a humanoid robot, which enables humanlike
walk and a path planning of humanoid robot for obstacle avoidance by using infrared sensors (IRs) is
proposed. As the focus is to obtain human-like walk, the robot is designed to resemble human proportions.
Based on the obtained information from IR sensors, a software flow proposed to decide the behaviour of robot
so that the robot avoids obstacles and goes to the destination. Furthermore the hardware and software
necessary to obtain a fully autonomous system is developed and implemented. Human-like walk was not
obtained on the real system, due to system limitations. If a new interface to the DC-motors in the servos was
developed, and a faster on-board computer was chosen, human-like walk should be possible.
Industrial robots have been used in car factories around the world for decades, but those in use today are more advanced than ever.
Car manufacturing robots give automotive companies a competitive advantage.
They improve quality and reduce warranty costs, increase capacity and relieve bottlenecks and protect workers from dirty, difficult and dangerous jobs.
Robots are an absolute necessity for car production companies in order to keep up with competitors due to extremely high demand, the complex nature of the product, and a lengthy assembly process.
There is a range of robotic applications within the automotive industry, and each application is responsible for making a specific process more accurate and efficient.
Abstract Finding a parking space in most metropolitan areas, during the rush hours, is difficult for drivers. The problem arises from not knowing where is the empty space; even if it is known, many vehicles may pursue very limited parking spaces to cause serious traffic congestion. In this project, a prototype of smart parking (S-Park) system is designed and implemented that allows drivers to effectively find and reserve the empty parking spaces using an android application connected to Internet. By periodically polling the parking status from the sensor networks deployed in parking lots, the reservation status is affected by the change of physical parking status. The drivers are allowed to access the server on their Android smartphones. The proposed smart parking policy has the potential to solve the problems of parking systems, as well as reduce traffic congestion caused by parking searching thus making the system two-way efficient, that is, cost wise and time wise. Key Words: Smart parking system, Android based application, Embedded server, One time password.
Robotic technology has the origin from the year 1954 and has very vast application in the field like energy, health, agriculture, education, research, motion and space etc. The disadvantage of any autonomous robot is that, it is very difficult to maintain stability of its traverse condition. In this paper, we have introduced and achieved maximum stability for the traverse condition through white line following technique. Here we are using the Fire Bird V robotic technology as our robotic medium, which has the Atmega2560 as its microcontroller and where it uses Studio 4 as its controller’s software platform. The control dynamic to the robot is sent via the software platform which is embedded ‘C’ language and the traverse condition is maintained. This robot runs at step down voltage value of 9V AC supply and has also uses lithium 9v battery as a stand by back up.
Swarm robotics : Design and implementationIJECEIAES
This project presents a swarming and herding behaviour using simple robots. The main goal is to demonstrate the applicability of artificial intelligence (AI) in simple robotics that can then be scaled to industrial and consumer markets to further the ability of automation. AI can be achieved in many different ways; this paper explores the possible platforms on which to build a simple AI robots from consumer grade microcontrollers. Emphasis on simplicity is the main focus of this paper. Cheap and 8 bit microcontrollers were used as the brain of each robot in a decentralized swarm environment were each robot is autonomous but still a part of the whole. These simple robots don’t communicate directly with each other. They will utilize simple IR sensors to sense each other and simple limit switches to sense other obstacles in their environment. Their main objective is to assemble at certain location after initial start from random locations, and after converging they would move as a single unit without collisions. Using readily available microcontrollers and simple circuit design, semi-consistent swarming behaviour was achieved. These robots don’t follow a set path but will react dynamically to different scenarios, guided by their simple AI algorithm.

The main aim of this work is to use a robot in a typical cafeteria environment to deliver
food from the main counter to the customer’s table, thereby acting as a mobile robot
waiter. This study is essential in order to promote efficiency in serving food to customers.
The robot uses an Arduino microcontroller to run a program with a combination of RFID
technology, a line following module and an obstacle detecting system. The Radio
Frequency Identification (RFID) reader is fixed on the robot itself, and reads the RFID
passive tag which is placed under the serving tray. The RFID application allows the robot
to identify the right table that is to be served and the robot moves to the respective table
based on the tag. The uniqueness in the design of this serving robot is the application of
the obstacle detection and collision avoidance, together with the integration of RFID
technology. The findings from this research provide evidence that the robot is able to
move according to the described path

Artificial Intelligence AI is required to construct technologies that can interact with the physical world in Robotics and Vision. AI systems such as robots can only communicate with the real world if they do their tasks accurately. The Robots efficiency is highly dependent on the applications vision techniques. As a result, the development of self driving and self contained robots relies heavily on visual techniques and procedures. A combination of temperature, gas, and fire sensors, as well as a buzzer, is used to detect areas that are more prone to explosions. In addition, a live video feed is available to keep tabs on the cars every move. Sensor based remote control of mobile robots in an unknown environment with obstacles is the focus of this paper.

Abstract
This paper introduces a Robot having the ability to choose a desired line among multiple coloured lines. Every line has different
colors as their identities. The robot can differentiate among various colours and choose a desired one to find its target. Unlike any
other simple line follower robot, this robot can be considered as a true autonomous line follower robot having the ability to detect
presence of obstacle on its path. From the android mobile, instructions are given to the robot that senses a line and endeavours itself
accordingly towards the desired target by correcting the wrong moves using a simple feedback mechanism but yet very effective
closed loop system. The robot is capable of following very congested curves as it receives the continuous data from the sensors. This
robot avoids collision and moreover, it can detect collision with obstacle sensor.

1. INTRODUCTION
Line follower robots are monotype mobile robot having the
ability to follow a line very accurately which has an on board
hardwired control circuit [1] and [2]. Usage of line follower
robot is also increasing day by day. Mostly, in all industrial
areas, where the automation is very much desired. A new kind
of line follower robot can accelerate automatic transportation.
Though, many researchers are studying regarding line
follower robot but most of the concepts are concentrated on
theoretical design. As a consequence a line follower robot is
designed using artificial intelligence for autonomous driving
and to stay on the line [3]. This robot team avoids collision
among each other. Moreover, it is uncertain whether it can
detect collision with obstacle or not. This design procedure is
capable of tracking destination and avoids collision through
sensors. A mobile robot controlling algorithm is developed
having the ability of avoiding barriers [4]. Another algorithm
for multiple controlling mobile robots is where prescribed in
[5] where performance is shown also through simulation
results. Most researchers preferred to show their designed
robot performance through simulation. To meet the
requirement of autonomous line based transportation, a new
kind of line follower robot has to be designed. This paper
provides an answer to that kind of requirements where there
will be multiple destinations and the robot should have the
ability to choose any of the desired destinations autonomously
[6] and [7]. Moreover, the robot should have another ability of
avoiding collision which can be achieved either by ultrasound
or by infrared radiation. Without the application of complex
sensor like camera and processors, this requirement is very
difficult to fulfill. Neural Network can be used to track the
target efficiently in a very short time [8] and [9] though
it is not contributed in this paper. This robot is designed
for practical applications which may include guidance
system for industrial robots moving on shop floors,
household applications or even at offices for transporting
files from one room to any other room etc. [10].
In this paper section II describes the motivation of the
system, where section III gives related work about this paper.
Section IV describes the system overview, Section V deals
with the motor interface and control hardware used in the
robot, Section VI describes the robot control by android.
Section VII gives the experimental results and finally section
VIII concluded with electronics of the robot.
2. MOTIVATION
In order to reduce the human work, it is necessary of
automation of color line following robot, this robot can be
used in library to carry books from one place to another place,
and it can be used for home automation, in restaurant it is used
as robotic waiter. A restaurant in downtown Harbin, China,
employs 20 robots instead of humans that cook, serve and
entertain its guests. The restaurant was opened in June 2012,
in this restaurant, line following robot is been used as a robot
waiter running along tracks on the floor which carries the
dishes to the desired table and it also serves dinner to the
family. They are well trained, efficient and fast and they won’t

hour charge. But the worker will not work for free or a cheap
labour - each robot costs between 200,000 to 300,000 hinese
Yuan (US$31,500 – US$47,000) with an additional 5 million
Yuan (US$790,000) invested into the restaurant itself. China
is expected to be the world’s largest market for robots by 2014
[Source: arkazlive via YouTube].As the technology improves
and the cost to build and run the robot drops. So large country
like India, it is necessary to use of line following robot in
restaurant, libraries, etc., but it is necessary to equip
restaurant, library with colored line tracks.
3. RELATED WORK
In robotics there are many system invented which has different
applications in different fields. Robotics is very popular field
for research and manufacturing. Pakdaman M. et.al has design
a small line following robot which used IR sensors to detect
the line drawn on floor [1]. Priyank Patil has developed an
AVR line following robot which can detect the line drawn on
the floor with the help of sensor array. When its sensor is
passing through the line drawn on the way then it reads 0 and
vice versa [2]. That system has designed for the robot
competition. Colak I. et.al has design a line following robot to
use in the shopping malls for entertainment. That system used
4.8 cm wide black line to carry maximum load of 400 kg. Two
wheels balancing robot has developed by Nor Maniha Abdul
Ghani et.al, which has the line following capability and for
balancing it, they used infrared distance sensor to solve the
problem in inclination [11], They also used a manual control
with the help of remote controller [12]. A physical robot with
50 individual controls is generated by Gomi T. et.al from
which the ability and gait to lift the body can be improved.
That robot can move its legs in forward motion and tested in
different conditions [13]. Roman Osorio C. et.al designed an
intelligent line following robot, which can modify the
performance of the movement with the help of different type
of magnetic sensors. That robot was based on the V2X sensor
which is a type of digital compass [14]. This system is used an
array of 8 IR sensors and several LEDs. M. Zafri Baharuddin
et.al designed a mobile robot which can be used as the
navigation purpose [15]. An intelligent robot system is
designed by Bajestani S. E. M. which can give corrective
feedback in different colors of light [16]. They used a
comparator circuit to improve the sensitivity of the system.
That comparator compares the voltage with the predetermined
amounts from which a robot can move in accurate real
time.Kazi Mahmud Hasan et.al designed sensor based
autonomous color line following robot with obstacle
avoidance, This robot can follow not only black and white
colors but also some other different colors. This robot
includes electronic logic gates as brain instead of
microcontroller [17].
4. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The proposed system consists of a PIC controller interfaced
with three IR sensors for detecting the direction of movement
for the robot. These sensors will be detecting the colour
difference between the black and white for the smooth
following of line. Further, an obstacle detector prevents the
robot from hitting any obstacles by stopping the robot once
any object is detected. The Controller takes action on the
feedback from the sensors and accordingly the motors are
controller for forward, reverse or turning movements. The
destinations in the track for robot are detected by using
coloredIR sensor, this sensor detecting green, blue, red and
yellow. The Android mobile sends commands to the PIC
Microcontroller using Bluetooth and UART communication.
The controller then takes action depending on the command
and directs the robot into the required Path. The LED and
phototransistor based sensors are used here to sense the line.
Four LEDs (TX) and phototransistor sensors (Rx) facing the
ground has been used in this setup.
Fig-1: Block diagram of colour line follower robot.
Two of them are used as line detectors and rest of them is used
for detecting destination. The output of the sensors is analog in
nature which depends on the amount of light reflected back.
This analog signal is then processed to produce digital data
containing information about the line and color. An IR
obstacle sensor is used to gather information about the nearby
obstacle present, which may block the line. Processing all
those data from the installed sensors, the robot’s brain
generates control signals automatically to perform the desired
movements. Suppose ambient light interfacing with sensor, it
may disturb the transition of data at that time. Sensors are not
going to identify the color lines. In these conditions RFID

reader detect the desired target by detecting RFID tag placed
at the destination. RFID reader reads the desired tag only
when the instructions are given to the robot through android
mobile.
4.1 Sensors
The robot uses two different types of sensors to gather all the
necessary information. The sensors are line sensor and IR
obstacle sensor.
4.1.1 Line Sensor
An infrared emitter is an LED made from gallium arsenide,
which emits near infrared energy at about 880nm.The infrared
phototransistor acts as a transistor with the base voltage
determined by the amount of light hitting the transistor.
Hence, it acts as a variable current source. Greater amount of
IR light cause greater currents to flow through the collector-
emitter leads. The phototransistor is wired in a similar
configuration to the voltage divider. The variable current
traveling through the resistor causes a voltage drop in the pull-
up resistor. This voltage is measured as the output of the
device
Fig-2: circuit diagram of infrared sensor
IR reflectance sensors contain a matched infrared transmitter
and infrared receiver pair. These devices work by measuring
the amount of light that is reflected into the receiver. Because
the receiver also responds to ambient light, the device works
best when well shielded from ambient light and when the
distance between the sensor and the reflective surface is
small.IR reflectance sensors are often used to detect white and
black surfaces. White surfaces generally reflect well, while
black surfaces reflect poorly. All the other colors have voltage
drops in between white and black color. A good sensor will be
able to differentiate different colors even if the separation
between two colors is very small. A powerful logical equation
is developed to utilize this property to extract color
information and build this line follower robot. To reduce
the ambient light interference, the line sensors are placed in a
bounded region where no ambient light can interfere in getting
data.
Fig-3 Line sensor arrangement and working
4.1.2 Obstacle Sensor
An IR sensor is used for detecting presence of an obstacle.
The sensor consists of an IR transmitter and receiver. There is
an IR LED
Fig-3: Obstacle Sensor
which emits IR light in front of the robot and if there is
any obstacle nearby which blocks the line, the receiver of the
IR sensor picks up the reflected IR light and produces a
logic '1' which then forces the robot to stop. Otherwise
the output of the IR sensor is logic '0'.The IR transmitter
modulates the IR light to produce IR pulses at 38 KHz so
that ambient light cannot create any interference in
detecting presence of obstacle.
4.2 Comparator
Comparator is use to make the system sensitive as per the
requirement. It usually compares the voltages between the
inverting and non-inverting terminals. A threshold voltage is
set on the reference voltage in the operational amplifier in
inverting or non-inverting terminal. If another terminal voltage
that is input voltage is greater than this threshold voltage then
it gives the output. And if the input voltage is less then
threshold voltage then it cannot gives any output. The
sensitivity of the sensor can be varying by set a threshold
voltage in the comparator circuit. By using this circuit a
Phototransistor can be used for low beam of light and an IR
sensor for detect the obstacle from a large distance.

Fig-4: Comparator circuit.
4.3 RFID Reader
RFID is a method of identifying unique items using radio
waves. It includes readers, antenna, mixed signal IC, RF
receiver and RF transmitter, Software based communication
protocols and networking. A non-contact system that can
monitor and track items or individuals. Provide unique
identification that allows for a wide range of applications
Perform the operation using unobtrusive, “low cost”
components. Use Wireless Communications techniques to
facilitate the system design. Main perpuos of radio frequency
identifier in this paper, suppose ambient light interfacing with
sensor, it disturb the transitions of data at that time sensors are
not going to identify the color lines. In these conditions RFID
reader detect the desired target by detecting RFID tag placed
at the destination. RFID reader reads the desired tag only
when instructions given to the robot through android mobile.
4.4 Algorithm
In start microcontroller check the sensor unit or receiver unit.
Then verifies this address if it is correct then it continue
process else it waits for appropriate address. If address is
correct then it moves towards sensor array. If center sensor
activate then all motors rotates and line follower move
forward. Else if right sensor activates then motors rotates in
manner that line follower move toward right. Else if left
sensor activate then line follower move towards left. Else if
left, right and center sensor activate at same time then all
motors stop and transmit signal. It stops till not received
appropriate address signal. For destination RFID reader or
color sensor address matches then robot stop for that position
else moves forward to other position
5. MOTOR INTERFACE AND CONTROL
HARDWARE
5.1 Motor Driver
Motor driver act like the current amplifier. It is use for
controlling the current in the motor. The motor drive provides
high current as the dc motor need when it receives low current
in the circuit. For drive the motors a high value of the current
is needed. ULN2003 IC can control the two dc motor
simultaneously. It can rotate the motor in the forward and
reverse direction. By using the motor driver a line following
robot can be move in clockwise and in anticlockwise
directions. It completely controls the movement of the dc
motor that’s why it has been called as motor driver.
Fig-5: Motor driver IC.
5.2 Motors and Wheels
For the proper movement of the system two dc motors has
been used in the circuit and a castor wheel is attached in the
front side of that Line Following Robot. Caster wheel enable
the movement of the robot is easy in every direction. Two dc
motors at the end side of the robot is controlled by the motor
driver. For controlling the complete system a microcontroller
is used, which set its flag bit as per the different situations.
And this complete system need a small power supply of 6-
12V, which can be provided form a battery. That is why this
system is cost effective and operates in very low power
supply.
5.3 Voltage Regulator
This LM7805 series of fixed-voltage integrated-circuit voltage
regulators is designed for a wide range of applications. These
applications include on-card regulation for elimination of
noise and distribution problems associated with single-point
regulation. Each of these regulators can deliver up to 1.5 A of
output current. The internal current-limiting and thermal-
shutdown features of these regulators essentially make them
immune to overload. In addition to use as fixed-voltage
regulators, these devices can be used with external
components to obtain Adjustable output voltages and currents,
and also can be used as the power-pass element in precision
regulators.
5.4 Comparators, Voltage Divider and Controller
Color separation requires comparator and controller for their
implementation.Voltage divider networks provide necessary
reference voltages. Controller act as brain of the robot which
makes it extremely cost effective and reduces complexity.

6. ANDROID CONTROL
Android is a mobile operating system that is based on
modified version of Linux. Android applications developed
using tools such as JDK, Android SDK, eclipse and Android
development tool. Architecture of Android consists of four
layers such as Linux kernel, Libraries, Application framework,
Applications. Kernel layer contains all the low level device
drivers for the various hardware components of an Android
device, Libraries contain all the code that provides the main
features of an Android OS. For example, the SQLite library
provides database support so that an application can use it for
data storage. The Web Kit library provides functionalities for
web browsing. Applications layer is top layer, here we will
find applications that ship with the Android device (such as
Phone, Contacts, Browser, etc.), as well as applications that
we download and install from the Android Market.
Fig-6: Main Menu of Robot control System
From the above control system, instructions are given to the
robot to reach its desired destination.
7. EXPERIMENT RESULTS
Phototransistor is basically acting as a variable current source
which changes with different intensity of light. With the help
of comparator circuit it can give the output when it comes
under the contact of that line drawn. By using motor driver it
follows the line drawn on the floor. At the turn of the line
drawn, phototransistor doesn’t get any output. DC motor must
be controlled by the motor driver for movement of the robot.
For left movement the left side DC motor should be stopped
and the right side DC motor should be run in forward
direction. Table I shows the different necessary conditions for
the movements of the motor. When the system detects any
obstacle in its path then the DC motor stops its rotation and a
buzzer is activated with the help of microcontroller unit.
Microcontroller can be used for controlling the Robot system
in every possible case.
