A simple robotics project simulated in Tinkercad based on Arduino Uno. It uses ultrasonic sensors for obstacle detection and can do basic movements using DC motors. The primary objective of this project is to develop an autonomous robot capable of navigating an environment while detecting and avoiding obstacles in its path. The robot utilizes ultrasonic sensors to measure distances and determine the presence of obstacles, employing an Arduino microcontroller to process sensor data and make real-time decisions. Motor functions are coordinated through the Arduino to enable dynamic movement and obstacle avoidance strategies. This project serves as a foundational framework for developing intelligent, obstacle-avoiding robotic systems using readily available components and open-source platforms like Arduino. By Using Tinkercad, it offers a virtual workspace where you can design circuits using Arduino boards, ultrasonic sensors, motor drivers, and other electronic components. You can drag and drop components onto a virtual breadboard, connect them using wires, and simulate the connections and interactions between the components.
