Ideas for Engineering

Students - Robotics Projects

Whenever one thinks of a robot, the first thing that comes to our mind is that
it imitates somebody’s action. Nevertheless, in reality, there’s
no standard definition of a robot. But, there are few basic features that a robot
is bound to have like intelligence, sensors, energy, and movement, etc. Many
robots do work independently to perform specific tasks, but alternative robots
need help from humans. Robotics projects are used entirely in different
applications and platforms like medical, space communication and also plays a
role in military applications
Today, many engineering students show a lot of interest in robotic projects.
They create a lot of interest and aspirations for robotics as well as to
other electronics projects with an option to buy engineering project kits
online. At the education level, projects on robotics are gaining wide
popularity, few projects are line following robots, pick & place robots, fire
fighting Robots, wall tracking Robots, humanoids, etc. Most projects are
effectively done as they can buy electronic project kits online which are easily
available. So, we tend to discuss and suggest engineering students select from
these robotic kits online as these are capable of operating successfully for
them.
Few of the Robotic projects that can be done as-as
follows:
• War Field Spy Robot with Wireless Night Vision Camera
• Auto Metro Train - Shuttling between Two Stations
• Robotic Vehicle Motion - Track Sensing
 War Field Spy Robot with Wireless Night Vision
Camera

The primary purpose of this project to design and plan a robotic vehicle
using RF technology with a wireless camera, in which RF technology will
be used for remote action and a wireless camera will be used for
monitoring role. The robot along with a camera transmits video with
night vision ability. Such robots are helpful for military applications
during wars and to inspect and spy the enemy territory.
It uses a wireless night vision camera to capture high-quality images
even in dark and has an ability to transmit it to a TV receiver unit. This
robotic application is controlled by using RF communication with a set
of push buttons.
Auto Metro Train - Shuttling between Two Stations

The primary goal of this project is to exhibit the technology that is used
in a metro train movement. This project application is used by many
developed countries. Here metro trains are equipped with a controller,
which automates the running of the train from one station to
another destination.
This automated metro train project is designed with an automatic start
and stop performance mechanism. So that the metro train stops at
the desired time and starts after a set time. It comprises a mechanism
that is automated to open and close the door and it also counts
the total number of individuals who have entered the train.
Robotic Vehicle Motion - Track Sensing
The primary objective of this robotic project is to design a robot, that tracks
a specific path. The path or line can be a black lane on a white floor. Track
sensors for Robotic vehicles are now used various applications that help to be a
guide at public places for automated vehicles. Here, this automated vehicle is
designed by a pair of sensors which is guided and made to move on a black lane
which is curved and uses both motors for sensors.
This Automated track sensing robotic vehicle has two motors, DC supply. The two
motors are controlled by a transistor, which also acts as a switch. The two sensors,
each sensor comprises of an IR LED and a photo-diode is placed under the circuit.
When both the sensors sense the white floor, then the motors give the motion to
rotate accordingly. At the turn, on encountering the black path lane, one of the
motor sensors stop rotating. The working principle of the sensor is, when the IR
LED generates light on the white floor, then it gets reflected. The reflected
light then drops on the photo-diode which decreases its resistance to control the
conduction of the motor switch.
