Human Following Robot Using Arduino

This project focuses on the development of a human-following robot using an Arduino-based platform. The robot utilizes ultrasonic sensors, infrared sensors, and a servo motor to detect and follow a human within a defined range. The system operates through a combination of real-time sensor data processing and simple algorithms implemented on the Arduino microcontroller. The ultrasonic sensors measure the distance between the robot and the human, while infrared sensors help in detecting the movement and direction of the human. Based on the inputs received, the robot adjusts its movement to follow the person at an optimal distance, ensuring safe and efficient navigation in a variety of environments. The project demonstrates the potential of Arduino in creating autonomous robots for applications in personal assistance, elderly care, and automated service systems. This design emphasizes simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and reliability, showcasing the feasibility of building a functional human-following robot using readily available components. The most important factor for an autonomous robot is to have a continuous interaction between the person and the robot itself. The improvement of science and technology has led to many change in our lifestyles.Our project is about a robot that autonomously follows human assisting them providing the necessary help needed. Using the latest technology in most of the applications like robot, military, space research etc.

Abstract

This project focuses on the development of a human-following robot using an Arduino-based platform. The robot utilizes ultrasonic sensors, infrared sensors, and a servo motor to detect and follow a human within a defined range. The system operates through a combination of real-time sensor data processing and simple algorithms implemented on the Arduino microcontroller. The ultrasonic sensors measure the distance between the robot and the human, while infrared sensors help in detecting the movement and direction of the human. Based on the inputs received, the robot adjusts its movement to follow the person at an optimal distance, ensuring safe and efficient navigation in a variety of environments. The project demonstrates the potential of Arduino in creating autonomous robots for applications in personal assistance, elderly care, and automated service systems. This design emphasizes simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and reliability, showcasing the feasibility of building a functional human-following robot using readily available components. The most important factor for an autonomous robot is to have a continuous interaction between the person and the robot itself. The improvement of science and technology has led to many change in our lifestyles.Our project is about a robot that autonomously follows human assisting them providing the necessary help needed.
