Autonomous Robot

• Created a autonomous robot that simulated lane detection by following a black line using IR sensors.
• It was able to detect obstacles in its path and stop using ultrasonic distance sensor.
• Using the feed from the webcam attached to it, it recognized stop signs, red and green traffic light signals. This was done by custom training a model using YOLOv8. Based on the features it recognizes,the python program sends a signal through Serial communication to the Arduino which then acts accordingly.
• Actions such as move forward,stop,turn left,turn right were displayed on an I2C OLED display.
• This project was inspired from the work of Zheng Wang's Self Driving RC Car
