As part of a school project I need to make a robot capable of autonomously moving around a grid system drawn on the floor whilst avoiding obstacles and that can alert a human if there is a problem. I have no idea what parts I will need to use or what sensors will be best or anything. I am working with a low budget so low cost solutions would be great. I am used to coding in python so if it was possible to use this as an input it would be ideal but I am open to learning new languages. Please help!

HI. I am really too newb to answer all of those questions.
On the grid does it have some sensor? If yes, you may for exemple take a position sensor and say you are at the a1d4 square on the grid right now no? Since it will know his position on the grid. If you may do it, I guess, you may put some proximity sensor on your robot and say for exemple: if proximity sensor1 are =1 move 1square to the left.
If on the grid there’s no sensor, I guess you will need camera. And you will set the camera like if you see anything else than setup point move on any square.
Start by finding the last years project or something on internet that might do somethink like ( moving sweeper for exemple) look how it is made of.

O and I forget, first step dowload any Artificial intelligence ( AI) like chatgpt for exemple. It would help you solved most of your questions you might have.
