Cerberes : Small 3-wheel ROBOT
Cerberes is a small three wheel robot that avoids obstacles which it senses with its active infrared sensors.Each rear wheel has its own motor, the single front wheel is not powered. The robot steers “like a tank” by rotating the rear wheels in opposite direction.The sensors are built with infrared LEDs which are running at 36kHz and two 36 kHz remote control receiver modules.When the 36 kHz infrared light from the LEDs is reflected by an object, one of the receiver modules will be triggered, and the PIC16F84 µController will steer the ROBOT away from the objects by reversing one of the motors.
