The main objective of this project is to construct a buggy robot that follows a magnetic strip on a platform without going off the magnetic line and recognises various road markings.
In order to construct this robot, we have to specify various electronic items needed. After consideration, our group decided to choose reed switches that would determine the motion of the buggy robot on the magnetic field and then the next challenge is to design the chassis. The concept is that the wheels of the buggy robot would be driven by two motors. The direction of the robot would change depending on the speed of each wheel. If the right wheel is slower than the left wheel, it would turn towards right side and if the left wheel is slower than the right wheel, the buggy would turn towards left side.
Reed switches are tiny switches that contain magnetisable, flexible, metal reeds whose end parts are separated by small gap when the switch is open. The reeds are sealed in tubular glass envelope.
