Activity Obstacle Avoider Using Mechatron Kit Skills #Critical Thinking

Overview

An Obstacle Avoider Robot is a smart machine that can sense things in front of it and move around
them. It uses a special sensor called an Ultrasonic sensor to figure out if there's something in its
way. If it finds an obstacle, the robot changes its direction to go around it and keeps moving without
bumping into things. This helps the robot to explore new places without getting stuck.

Learning Objectives

Understand the principles of robotics and how sensors detect obstacles in a real-world
environment.

Apply skills in assembling electronic components and programming microcontrollers to perform
automated tasks.
Develop problem-solving abilities by troubleshooting and optimizing robot movements to avoid
collisions.
