Car tracking

Car trackingDevice connectionHardware connectionSoftware connectionImplementation ideasCode analysisExperimental resultsNotes

The K1 button is used to control the on and off of the car's tracking (line patrol) function. The environment for debugging the car code is to follow the black line under a white background.

xxxxxxxxxx
Since the previous tutorial has explained the basic knowledge of all car modules, the car control tutorial will not be repeated, and the main focus is on the car function implementation ideas!

Device connection

Hardware connection

Use Type-B data cable to connect Arduino Uno and computer.

Software connection

Open the "Arduino IDE" software and select the model and serial port number corresponding to the development board.

Implementation ideas

Use the three-way line patrol module to obtain the position of the car relative to the black route, and control the movement of the car according to this position.

Button K1: turn on or off the car tracking function;

Three-way patrol module: get the position of the car head relative to the black line;

Car control:

The three-way patrol module is located on the left side of the black line, and the car turns left;

The three-way patrol module is located in the middle of the black line, and the car goes straight;

The three-way patrol module is located on the right side of the black line, and the car turns right.

xxxxxxxxxx
The actual code also analyzes the situation where the three-way patrol module detects all black lines, and the code controls the forward movement in this situation.

Code analysis

Here is only a brief introduction to the code content. For detailed code, please refer to the corresponding code file, which is provided in the download area!
