What you'll learn
Obstacle Finder Robot is a practical robotics course designed to introduce learners to robot assembly, electronics, Arduino programming, sensors, motor control and autonomous navigation.
The course focuses on building a robot that can detect obstacles using an ultrasonic sensor and make movement decisions accordingly. Learners understand how motors, motor drivers, sensors and microcontrollers work together to create an intelligent robotic system.
Through hands-on activities, students learn to assemble the robot, measure distances, program movement, detect obstacles and develop automatic turning and navigation logic. Advanced activities introduce servo-based sensor scanning and improved path-selection techniques.
