tHIS POST IS A MESS. iT IS EDITED SEVERAL TIMES AND MAKES NO MORE SENCE. i HAVE NO TIME TO DO MORE ABOUT IT: bOTTOM LINE IS THAT THERE IS ATTACHED A ZIP-FILE WITH ALL i EVER DID INlINE-SENSORING FOR pICAXE!


 

Chris the carpenter asked for picaxe code to line follower.

First you have to hook up the sensors to the analouge in. That is a chapter for itself, but in the end you will have a value for each sensor; 0-255

I have tried some different line-sonsors, once JIP and I was playing around with them.

Today was the qualification round of DTU robocup. My robot did not do very well at all - it tied with 7 others for the last place - getting 0 points!

When testing the robot on the robocup track the first thing that was wrong was that the lighting was so bright, that the sensors were all fully saturated all the time and thus couldn't see the line. That problem was somewhat solved by adding a lot of cardboard and tape plus some clothing on top to keep the light out.

The robot measures line position with the 4 line sensors and feeds this to a PD-regulator which in turn produces the two motor outputs. This setup gives a smooth … Read more
