How do you make a line follower?

i just want to know how to make a line follower, like the equipment needed. if there is a walkthrough, please give me the link. if there isn't, can you tell me how or give me a link to a site that does?

I would not jump at a Microcontroller if you dont know the basic theory yet.

You can use a comparator to compare voltage between a CDs Voltage divider. I have made a robot head and a line follower like this. It is a similar example in "Robot Building for beginners"

Posts that boil down to HELP
Posts that boil down to HELP ME don’t typically get much help. Please create your own thread and post a specific item you need help on. Doing a little research first also goes a long way.

You can make a line follower alot of ways

Well you can make one with BEAM if you really want to want to http://www.solarbotics.com/products/rbfb/ (I haven’t read that book but apparently the whole book focuses on building a line following robot) Note: beam is good for beginners , but it can be a little bit fiddly and annoying trying to get a kajillion soldering joints to be perfect

Or you can make one using arduino

Or you can make one with picaxe

Google it, and I bet you will find a ton of results

 

hi my opinion
I think a kit may be a good way to start building robots. I’m very interested in building robots and also a beginner.
Several days ago, I bought the ASURO kit, according to the instruction, it can achieve the function of line_following
after programmed, I’m ready to build it!!!
English is not my native tongue, hehe

there is a lot of info on the interwebs
Just google line following robot. There is even BASIC code samples for such a robot. I am new to this too but doing your own research then asking specific questions you may have about a part of the process is a lot better. No one here would ever do you the disservice of doing the work for you. Cant wait to see your line following robot once you get it done! :slight_smile:

BEAM is a good way too.
