OBSTACLE AVOIDER USING SENSOR TECHNOLOGY Kiran kumar Dileep raju Bojja Haranath Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad What is a sensor? Wikipedia Definition “ Device that detects(senses) changes in the ambient conditions or in the state of another device or a system, and conveys or records this information in a certain manner” SPECIFICATIONS OF SENSOR Accuracy: error between the result of a measurement and the true value being measured. Resolution: the smallest increment of measure that a device can make. Sensitivity: the ratio between the change in the output signal to a small change in input physical signal. Slope of the inputoutput fit line. Repeatability/Precision: the ability of the sensor to output the same value for the same input over a number of trials TYPES OF SENSORS • Bump sensors, which are switches activated when the robot touches an obstacle. • Infrared proximity detectors, which detect the presence of an object in front of the sensor. • Ultrasonic range sensors, which determine the range of the object in front of it. • Laser range finders, which work on the same principle as ultrasonic PRIMARY REQUIREMENT OF ROBOT Obstacle avoidance is a primary requirement for any autonomous mobile robot. The robot acquires information about its surroundings through sensors mounted on the robot.
