Slowest line follower robot [Raspberry Pi Robot]
This short video shows how Not to make the Fastest line follower robot.
The line follower is a robot with simple logic: to hold the black line between 2 IR sensors. If the left sensor detects the line underneath, the robot moves left. and so on.
Robot uses the infrared sensors TCRT5000.
I've made two major mistakes:
1. IR sensors were mounted too high from the surface of the line. As a result, I had to draw a wide black line (more than one inch wide).
2. IR Sensors mounted very wide, so there was a problem with stability in the corners. I have to set the power of the motors at 50%, as a result the movement speed is low.
For further line follower projects, I will use other chassis and more sensors, also I will use a 32-bit controller for it.
