What is a wall following robot?
A wall following robot is designed to move along a wall without hitting it. It has obstacle detection sensors mounted on the body which detects wall and drive DC motors attached to the wheels such that the robot keeps moving along the wall.
How are sensors used in robotics?
Sensors allow a robot to overcome these obstacles and collect information from the surrounding environment, in order to interact with it. Humanoid robots need a multitude of these sensors in order to mimic the capabilities of their living counterparts.

What is Obstacle Avoiding robot?
Obstacle avoidance robot is design to allow robot to navigate in unknown environment by avoiding collisions. Obstacle avoiding robot senses obstacles in the path, avoids it and resumes its running. We have make use of sensors to achieve this objective.
What are the necessary states for a wall following robot?
It must be easily programmable without a complicated IDE or programmer. It must be powerful enough for expandability. It should run off a simple power source. It should be able to follow a line or a wall, and avoid obstacles.
How do sensors work?
How do sensors work? Put simply, a sensor converts stimuli such as heat, light, sound and motion into electrical signals. These signals are passed through an interface that converts them into a binary code and passes this on to a computer to be processed.
What kind of sensors are used in robotics?
Types of Robot Sensors
- Light sensors. A Light sensor is used to detect light and create a voltage difference.
- Sound Sensor.
- Temperature Sensor.
- Contact Sensor.
- Proximity Sensor.
- Distance Sensor.
- Pressure Sensors.
- Tilt Sensors.
What is robotics programming?
Robot programming refers to the process of developing a control scheme for how a machine interacts with its environment and achieve its goals. It usually requires a basic knowledge of mathematics and a programming language. For example, Python is one of the most popular robot programming languages today.
