Magnetic Field Tracking Robot

Base Features/Requirements

• Two different Microcontrollers
• Battery-operated
• Robot Construction/Assembly
• C programming
• MOSFET drivers
• Controller Mode
• Follower Mode
• Integration
• Distance - 50 cm
• Project Report
• Video Presentation

Additional Features:

• Go home (5 points)

     - Save movements in array and reverse movements
  

• Python (Mapping)

• LCD display (1 or 2 points)

• Autopilot (predefined movements) (5 points)
