Sonar Part Research

[ZM009]

Goal

Research the sonar attachments and other methods of obstacle avoidance to allow autonomous robot control.

Future Addition

Possible implementation of sonar as a method of obstacle avoidance on the weed robot utilized in public spaces and other areas with walls, curbs and other obstacles.

[ZM009]

An algorithm can be designed to have the robot check the left and right paths to determine which way to travel when an ultrasonic sensor detects an obstacle.

_Obstacle to the front and on the left:_
* The robot will turn and go right

_Obstacle to the front and on the right:_
* The robot will turn and go left

_Obstacles surrounding robot:_
* The robot will reverse and change path to avoid obstacles
