Project
Advanced Line Follower Robot
High-speed competition robot using closed-loop control and custom sensor arrays for precise line tracking at race speeds.
Problem Statement
Compete in technical robotics events that require reliable, high-speed path tracking on challenging line courses.
System Design
Dense line-sensor array feeding a tuned PID loop running on a high-frequency microcontroller, with differential drive and encoder feedback for correction.
Key Challenges
Maintaining stability at high speeds, rejecting ambient light interference on the sensor array, and tuning controllers across multiple course layouts.
Results
Multiple podium finishes at national-level competitions including IIT Bombay Techfest, IIT Madras Shaastra, IIIT Delhi and Technoxian championships.
