Obstacle Avoiding Car - an Arduino Based Prototype Which Runs Autonomously Avoiding Obstacles In Front of It

Abstract

The goal of this research was to create a vehicle that could repeat a human-driven trajectory.The system would be equipped with sensors that would identify impediments andallow it to react based on their location.In order to measure the deformation of the suspensions and the wheel speed, many more sensors were required. It was also investigated employing a GPS, a gyroscope, and an accelerometer to compare the information they provided with the orders issued by the CPU, as well as a light sensor (LDR) to assist in selecting whether or not to use the camera and the computer vision algorithm.It might consider parking in the closest available spot if there isn't much light. It was also suggested that a spotlight be used.In addition, a pressure sensor was said to be installed inside the seat to detect whether or not someone was sitting on it.The car would come to a halt if no one was seated.Some concepts, however, were deemed secondary and were kept for a later version of the vehicle.
