Obstacle Detection and Path Crossover Using Fire Bird V Robot

In today's world robotics is a fast growing and interesting field. Robot has sufficient intelligence to cover the maximum area of provided space. The main objective of this paper is to develop a robot that will move according to the code assigned and navigate according to the conditions i.e., navigating from any obstacle on its way to avoid collisions. The guidance system consists of infrared sensors for obstacle detection, range determination and avoidance. IR proximity sensors are used to detect the obstacles in robots path. The infrared sensor reading is taken and processed to avoid the obstacles. Obstacle avoidance robot has a vast field of application. They can be used as service robots, for the purpose of household work and so many other indoor applications. Nowadays, even in ordinary environment, people also require that robots can detect and avoid obstacles. The desired goal of this system is to avoid obstacles along its path and to determine the distance.
