This project describes about an obstacle avoidance robot vehicle which is controlled by ultrasonic sensor. The robot is made using ultrasonic sensor and it is controlled by Arduino microcontroller. Ultrasonic sensor fixed in front portion of the robot vehicle. The sensor gets the data from surrounding area through mounted sensors on the robot. The sensor is sense the obstacle and deviate its path to choose an obstacle free path. The sensor will be send the data to the controller is compared with controller to decide the movement of the robot Wheel. The robot wheel movement and direction will be based on the sensing of the ultrasonic sensor and also using a wheel encoder. This vehicle is used for detecting obstacle and avoiding the collision. Now day ' s many industries are using robots due to their high level of performance and reliability and which is a great help for human beings. The obstacle avoidance robotics is used for detecting obstacle and avoiding the collision. This is an autonomous robot. The design of obstacle avoidance robot requires the integration of many sensors according to their task. The obstacle detection is primary requirement of this Autonomous robot. The robot gets the information from surrounding area through mounted sensors on the Robot. Some sensing devices used for obstacle detection like bump sensor, infrared sensor, ultrasonic sensor etc. Ultrasonic sensor is most suitable for obstacle detection and it is of low cost and has high ranging capability. Arduino robot that can be controlled by an android mobile or tablet, with the help of an android app that can be downloaded from Google Play store. The android application gets connected to the bluetooth module and sends desired commands. This app controlled robot is capable to move in any direction. Though there are lots of similar apps out there, we have programmed this project to be used with ANDROID app.
