   II.            LINE FOLLOWING ROBOT

a)     DEFINITION

Line following robot is autonomous robot operating itself to detect and follow the desired path. The path is designed randomly with various material, it could be visible by using white or color tapes, and invisible by using magnetic field. However base on the reasonable cost, in this case we just consider visible path. The controller help robot sensing and keeping in track with the path and eliminate the wrong move by the feedback system.

b)    STRUCTURE

                                            i.            Sensor

The most common type of sensor using for line detector is Infrared Ray sensor, divided into active and passive type.

Table 1. 1: Active and passive IR sensor comparison

Active IR(Infrared) Sensor

Passive IR(Infrared) Sensor

These sensors are self-illuminating type.

These sensors are not self-illuminating type.

They can directly measure range and velocity of targets.

They have problems in measurement of these two parameters.

They can function effectively in day, dark and with cold target type.

They cannot function dark as well as with cold target.

These are intercepted and located easily by enemy detection system.

These are not easily intercepted and located by enemy sensors.

They are small and light EM sensor.

They are small and light EM sensor.

They are cheap.

They are cheap.

Detection as well as measurements of targets are inferior to the radars.

Detection as well as measurements of targets are inferior to the radars.

Infrared released is collected by receiver. The brighter the surface is, the more infrared could be received. However, the working distance is closed, must be 2 – 10 mm.

                                         ii.            Controller and processor

The controller and processor will collect the data from IR sensors, together with formulas, then generate signal to driver to keep the movement under-control.

However, in some model, the controller may be not necessary, relay, in this case, takes responsibility to processing.

 

                                       iii.            Driver

The Robot commonly uses motor for its movement. Therefore, driver is needed to receive the signal from controller then convert it into pulse and voltage to actuator.

The most common type of driver is L298 (Bridge circuit).

                                       iv.            Actuator

There are many ways to build an actuator for robot, such as, wheel or tank system. Wheel with gearbox is the most common movement system because of reasonable price and easy control. Gearbox will help to maintain the constant speed even when robot go in slope (critical angle slope is not concerned

Common DC motor 12V is enough torque for small robot.

                                          v.            Body structure

The appearance of line following robot, thought, is various, 2 main driving motor and 1 multi-direction wheel is considered as the most famous. As this design is easy to build and control.

The material of case is usually acrylic sheet, PE foam, or light wood. They are popular for being hard enough and light as well as not hard to get in desired form

c)     POPULAR MODEL

                                            i.            Simple line following robot by Playwithrobot

 

Fig 1. 2: Simple line following robot by PlaywithRobots [2]

This must be the simplest robot, since two transistor are used as processor instead of micro-controller. If the left IR sensor get the signal of line, transistor let the current go to right wheel and so on.

Because of too simplest, this design is easy to get stuck in error and moves out of path. Moreover, it cannot perform more complicated movement such as map solving.

 

                                         ii.           
Bi-color path following robot by Mehtap KÖSE ULUKÖK


Fig 1. 3: Sample Bi-color path [3]

 

Fig 1. 4: Bi-color path following robot by Mehtap KÖSE ULUKÖK [4]

For the model of KÖSE ULUKÖK, he introduce 4 algorithms to control the line following robot by using binary signal and 2 of them could make the robot keep in track even when color being changed. About one of the successful code, it includes 2 condition for each direction movement, for example, all 3 sensors were checked, the “turn left direction” was made whether ((Left or Center) and (Right or Left)) sensor was on.

In general, this model is quite simple to generate and operate but disadvantages still appear when it has only one constant setting speed.

 

 

 

 

                                       iii.            Line following robot with Arduino by Mati_DIY

0


Fig 1. 5: Line following robot with Arduino by Mati_DIY [4]

This model won the 1st price for being the fastest line following robot in National contest

Its key for getting the high speed is reducing the mass as much as possible. The suitable motor, besides it, also the vital point, and in this case, Pololu metal gearbox motor is chosen.

The PD (proportional and derivative) controller is used for optimizing the movement correction and push up the response.

So in conclusion, PD controller is the most important for line following robot. Integral controller is not used for this kind of robot thus integration is summing all historic error.

In my opinion, PID controller must be the most efficient and cutting-edge method to control this type of robot

                                       iv.            Line following robot by Pantech Solution

 

Fig 1. 6: Line following robot by Pantech Solution [5]

For this device, input signal from IR sensor is sent to Arduino which decides what change (if any) needs to be made to the robots speed and direction. Convert the results of any decisions made into something that can be sent to motor speed control and/or steering.

The differences are their way of processing signal, by setting the reference and comparing with each IR sensor signal. The comparison helps to modified speed and acceleration more easily

 

                                          v.            Line Follower Robot using PIC Microcontroller

 

Fig 1. 7: Line Follower Robot using PIC Microcontroller [6]

In this project, instead of using Arduino, PIC16F877a is used for its advantages. PIC is better than Arduino in the speed of processing and endurance. 2 IR sensor are used to simplify the model and information processing, but, vibration is considerable.

                                       vi.            Fuzzy Line Following NXT Robot

 

Fig 1. 8: Fuzzy line following NXT Robot [7]

The idea behind the new version is, not only to distinguish between black and white, but to consider various degrees of grey. If the sensor is exactly on the boundary, it will see a colour that is between black and white. The more the sensor gets on the line, the blacker the perceived colour is. On the other hand, the more the sensor gets on the white surface, the whiter the perceived colour is. This is called Fuzzy Logic as we do not consider absolute states (Boolean Logic, here "Black and White") but different degrees of those states (Whiter, Blacker).

Now we are not limited anymore to turn only left and right, but can turn more right (blacker colour) or more left (whiter colour). In this way, if exactly on the colour boundary, the robot runs straight ahead.

To produce the motor commands as described in the schema, the following calculations have to be done:

  • A_Power=(Sensor_Value-Black_Value)*Speed_Factor
  • B_Power=(White_Value-Sensor_Value)*Speed_Factor

III.            ROBOT KINEMATIC

Note:

Kinematic equation at D:

With:

            Robot velocity:

                                                     (5.3)

Robot angular:

                                                    (5.4)

With:

  • : right wheel and left wheel angular velocity, accordingly
  • : wheel diameter
  • : distance between 2 wheels

Kinematic equation at tracking point C:

                                             (5.5)

With d is the width between center of line connect 2 driving wheel to point C

Kinematic of reference point G:

                                                                                             (5.6)

With  is desired velocity of robot

Controller is designed for point C to follow tracking point G, Error of system is calculated by:

Let:

From that:

With , because of control characteristic, and  have the same sign.

We have

That mean system will be stable and error will converge to 0 when t => infinity

In practice:  error e1 is unmeasurable and considered to be d, e2 can be measured directly from set of sensor, e3 can be calculated through equation:

However, when experimenting with the robot, the appearance of e3 under above equation make the robot unstable and direct calculate e3 using two set of sensor is imposible.

   So we neglect e1 and e3, new Lyapunov equation will be:

Chose , so that  

New controller is now a proportional controller with gain kp

  • Package type: leaded
  • Detector type: phototransistor
  • Dimensions (L x W x H in mm): 10,2 x 5,8 x 7
  • Peak operating distance: 2,5 mm
  • Operating range within > 20 % relative collector

current: 0,2 mm to 15 mm

  • Typical output current under test: IC = 1 mA
  • Daylight blocking filter
  • Emitter wavelength: 950 nm
  • Lead (Pb)-free soldering released
  • Compliant to RoHS    directive    2002/95/EC    and    in accordance to WEEE 2002/96/EC

Purpose:

  • Find number of sensor
  • Find distance from sensor to plane
  • Response of sensor depending on angle

1.     Choosing distance from sensor to plane:

Set up simple experience to measure the dependence of signal to distance:

Fig 5. 6: Distance of sensor experiment

By changing distance between sensor and plane from 3mm to 20mm we get data of signal:

Fig 5. 7: Distribution of signal value by distance

Due to graph, the space between sensors and the line should in range of 7 to 15mm, if less than this range, the value of blackline is not large enough for comparison, and the distance larger than 15mm may take the sensors out of their working environment.

So we choose the distance is 7mm for minimize the effect of noise on signal

2.     Choosing the number of sensor

 

Assume that for t = 0,001, the car can move

                     (5.10)

The distance between 2 sensors should larger than 26mm so it can prevent disturbance

Critical angle we can assume it to be 10o

                                                      (5.11)

With L is the distance between 2 end-sensors, w = 26mm (line width)

Choose L = 80mm

With distance between sensors is 25mm

ðWe need 4 sensor

ðThe distance between sensors is 27mm


Response of sensors by distance

 Fig 5. 8: Experiment to measure response of sensors

By setting the experiment, we can observe the response of sensor group by changing the distance with the center of 2 wheels.

Using the equation of error:

However, the data of each sensor is not in the same range. Therefore we need to calibrate to get the same range of all sensor.

By using the formula:

                          (5.13)

After calibration, we get the map response

We get the equation for sensors depend on the distance:

                                       (5.14)

Fig 5. 9: Function of sensors error depend on distance

 

CHAPTER 6: DESIGNING AND SIMULATION

      I.            Control algorithm

Base on the given map, we get 3 states of robot:

  • Follow the line
  • Go straight through intersection
  • Turn left at the intersection

 

  • Case 1: Robot follow the line base on PID method

Applying for AB – BC; CD – DE; EF – FC; CG – GA

Velocity of 2 wheels are different and defined by PID formula

PID = (Kp*error) + (Ki*I) + (Kd*D)

left_speed = int_speed + PID;

right_speed = int_speed – PID

 

  • Case 2: Robot go straight through intersection

Applying for BC – CD; FC – FG;  AC – CE

By keep both velocities of 2 wheels be the same, the robot can go through intersection before get out of the node

 

 

  • Case 3: Robot turn left at the intersection

Applying for GA – AC

Keep the velocity of right wheel maintain and reduce the left one to 0

After get over the intersection, the velocities are again calculated by PID method

   II.            Simulation

Note: The value error 2 depend on the parameter [k1 k2 k3] which is choose. This simulation is run with [k1 k2 k3] is [0 2 0].

 

Fig 6. 3: Simulation position of robot on matlab

Note: The red line is reference line; the blue line is position of the robot.

 

Fig 6. 4: Simulate error 2 on Matlab

Fig 6. 5: Simulate velocity of 2 wheels on Matlab

Note: The red line is right wheel; the blue line is left wheel.

In ABC segment, the highest value of error 2 is located at B because robot change direction suddenly. As we can see, at the other 3 corners, there are the same situations as position B.

At the end of process, there is a dramatic increase in the value of error 2 when the robot turns back to A point end go straight ahead to the finish point. The reason for this problem is the GAC corner, which is nearly right angle, the robot drifts too fast. However, the number of error 2 gradually stabilize in the last straight segment

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CHAPTER 7: EXPERIMENT RESULT AND CONCLUSION

      I.            Experiment result


Base on the error data collect from robot,

Fig 7. 1: Experimental


On G – A – C section:

Fig 7. 2: Error feedback on G – A – C section

Through the curve G – A, the value of sensor slightly fluctuates, but still remain around 0,

At the intersection A, due to algorithm, the robot still follows the given map.

On D – E – F – C – G section:

 

Fig 7. 3: Error feedback on D – E – F – G section

 

 

   II.            Conclusion

The robot can response and follow the given map at 0,3m/s robustly

Robot work best around 0,3m/s with small fluctuation, error 2 is biggest at intersection

At 0,4m/s robot fluctuate a lot and unable to make 90 degree turn,

At 0,5m/s robot unable to follow line at curve.

Our conclusion is that the controller is only a proportional gain, not suitable for high speed controlling with high demain.

ð   Simulation and practice are far different since controller that work for simulation is not applicable and controller parameter that is tuned in practice don’t work in simulation.
