Reconnaissance and exploration robot. Microcontroller-based data acquisition system for environmental parameters
Jesús Sergio Artal Sevil, J. L. Montanes · 2016
The purpose of this paper has been to develop a microcontroller-based data acquisition system, intended for a group of small autonomous mobile robots (MBots), to capture and store the different physical and environmental variables acquired during its exploration. The initial objectives have been resolved satisfactorily. The development of a TFG (Final Year Project) applied it allows to evaluate the skills and competences acquired by students along their university period. Thus it is possible to increase the degree of student motivation during its development and implementation. Develop and control robotic elements locally or remotely, it has always been a clear example of additional motivation for students. During their development the students can implement numerous theoretical concepts in an entertaining and fun way. In this paper an electronic application innovative, topical and at low cost is presented. The prototype developed has exceeded the initial expectations.
