Wall-E - A line following Robot

How do you make a robot follow a line? Now what if the robot has only two wheels. How will it balance and follow the line? This is exactly what is taught in the Wall-E workshop. The Wall-E workshop focuses on the concepts of line-following and self-balancing, using ESP32, a powerful micro-controller with features like inbuilt Wi-Fi support and BLE, with extensive application in several domains like IoT, RF, etc. The workshop entails various essential concepts such as PID Control, Embedded Communication Protocols, PWM, Filters, RTOS, etc. and gives its attendees (first-year students) a general idea about the world of robotics and embedded hardware. Following are some of the highlights:

  • The custom-made SRA Development Board & ESP32.
  • ESP-IDF, the official IoT Development framework by espressif.
  • Motor Control with PWM and PID.
  • Accelerometer , gyroscope and complimentary filter.
  • Communcation protocols ( UART , SPI , I2C )
