I'm not much of a programmer. I made it so it spins around in a circle to find the closest object, presumably an energy drink, and moves towards it, tracking it as its goes in case it goes off course. When it gets within 10 inches of the object it checks the width of it. If it is under 3 inches wide the robot will try to pick it up. If not, the robot turns around to find another close object. And then it does the same thing... I have looked at a few programs for creating a map of the area with a single sweep of the ultrasound. I understand how they work, and can have the robot save the map to a file, but getting it to do something with that data has proved challenging. |
