Obstacle Detection Using Sensor Based System For An Four Wheeled Autonomous Electric Robot

Recently, many industries are using autonomous robots due to their high performance and reliability and which remains as a great help for human beings. Autonomous cars are considered as one of the most trending topics all over the web a car with no steering wheels, pedal, and with the most advanced technology autopilot. An autonomous vehicle is able to recognize there surrounding and finding the path there itself. Autonomous robot senses their surrounding with the help of different sensors such as Lidar, radar, ultrasonic sensor, infrared sensor; GPS etc. the control system used in autonomous vehicle read the information from the surrounding and find the appropriate path as well as the various obstacles are present on the path. Most of the autonomous vehicles are used for the obstacle detection purpose. In this project, the obstacle detection system is developed and the IR sensor usually used for the distance measurement. The sensor-based four-wheeled autonomous electric robot used to move the vehicle in the predefined path and avoid the obstacle during motion using the data logged from the IR sensor. Suppose during motion the robot doesn't have enough space to pass through the obstacle it must be stopped there itself or otherwise it moves by avoiding the obstacle. The system can be designed in Simulink environment.
