Lego Mindstorms Robot


One of the subjects that I'm studying in CTU university is ROBOTS. The goal of this subject is make the control of a robot Lego Mindstorm.

For the first project, we have done a line follower robot. We formed small teams. In ours we decided to do the control with a PID controller. Other teams decided to do it without PID (below you can see the code). After the contest, we test out that PID control is more effective.

 To control the time that takes for each robot to traverse the circuit infrared sensors (Fig.1)have been connected to the computer using the micro LPC1754, NXP (Fig. 2). In turn, the PC is connected to a projector. It rocks, you can see in the video.
