Hand Guided Robot Car
Hand Guided Robot Car
A robot that follows the guidance of your hand
Key
The robot uses a distance sensor to determine how far your hand is from it, if your hand is to close it will back up, if your hand is too far it will drive forwards. it tries to stay around 10 centimeters away from anything in front of it.
Nice! Can you think of any applications for this robot? Maybe it could be turned into a game or a way to entertain a pet?
This is a great use of proportional control.
I like how you included the code in your video! Seeing the code really helped to illustrate how the robot worked. (:
I like how you thought of being able to control the direction in a simple way. What type of hand motions would you program for turning the robot?
I tried turning the robot when it is stopped for a certain amount of time but i found while doing that it was hard to get it out of a loop of it turning
I’ve always thought this concept was incredibly cool, and you executed it wonderfully
Nice work! You could try including a proportional control to make the motion smoother, but calibrating its values (target and error) might take some time.
super cool!! did you use proportional control or a serious of conditionals
