Delivery Line Tracking Robot

Abstract: The project we embarked on is making an electronic robot that can deliver a package along a set route through infrared sensors. It uses the infrared sensors to determine if the path it is following is correct or if it is off course. This is determined by sending off a photon to reflect off the path and determines if it is on a light surface by the amount of light emitted back or if it is a dark surface by the amount of light that is not present. In addition to following a line, the user can stop and start the robot at any interval through the infrared remote control. The project is a combination of the practical parts of machinery with the software part of coding in Arduino which is a coding subsect of C++. This can lead to endless possibilities that could help a wide variety of people from all ranges of life, especially with those that live with disabilities
