This paper presents a project of designing an obstacle avoidance robot which works using a ultrasonic sensor.Basically obstacle avoidance means it is the technique which satisfy a property of controlling a body without intersection with the other body.Whenever some object appears in front of the robotic vehicle it tends to move away from it so as to avoid the manual operation of the robot to move a robot.The project has a robotic vehicle which includes Arduino board through which programming is done so as to move the robot and an ultrasonic sensor through which the body appearing in front of robot can be detected and it sends a signal to prevent it from colliding and move in a different direction.This robotic vehicle is built, using a motor driver circuits.Depending on the input signal received from the ultrasonic sensor , the micro-controller in the Arduino sends the signal to the motor driver to move the robotic vehicle in other direction to prevent it from collision with other bodies.Hence, this paper presents the operation of an obstacle avoidance robot using an ultrasonic sensor, motor driver, Arduino, and a source to run the robot.
