Autonomous Vehicle with Obstacle Evasion Capability
Abstract: This paper involves the design and implementation of an obstacle-avoidance vehicle. The goal of this project is to build a vehicle that, when in motion, can recognize obstructions in its route and, in the absence of outside interference, alter course as essential. Based on sensor inputs, the robot determines the new direction to prevent a collision as the direction with the largest distance between the obstacle and the sensor. An …

A Review on Two-Wheeled Self-Balancing Robot Using Spartan-3E FPGA for Sensor Fusion and Real-Time Motor Control
Abstract: Two-wheeled self-balancing robots (TWSBR) are a popular application of embedded control and robotics because they operate on the inverted pendulum concept, which is naturally unstable. The main objective of such robots is to continuously maintain balance by estimating the tilt angle and applying corrective motor action in real time. In most practical systems, low-cost inertial sensors such as accelerometers and gyroscopes are used for tilt measurement. However, accelerometer readings are …
