I need to make a autonomous robot for an project module. That robot required to fullfill bellow challenges:

Welcome to the Arduino forum. Do you have a question or a problem to solve?

Great plans. Thanks for telling.
Tip!
There are numerous of relevant topics to find in forum. No one is exactly the same so You need to pick interesting pieces here and there.
"Search Forum" up to the right in this window is the key.

Excellent. Show what you have, show what you will do.

That is quite a challenge! This will not be a small robot.

I suggest to work on the navigation first and get that down, before adding the pick&place. Have fun!

The dimensions must not exceed bellow. But height has no limit.

The ramp has following dimensions;

So we chose the following hardware options;

  • Microcontroller:Arduino Uno
  • Line Sensor Array:MD0577 (it includes on US sensor
  • 2 Ultrasonic Sensors:HC-SR04 (for obstacle identification.)
  • 2 DC Motors(for wheels)
  • Motor Driver:L298N
  • Servo Motors: (Need to identify how many required how much torque req. does it need any seperate voltage regulation etc... Give me your opinions please)
    We think 2 3200mAh batteries are enough for uno board for motor control. But the idea of giving a seperate power to robot arm using 2 1200mAh with 5V regulator should be considered( Give some advice)

Heres what should be aquired:

  1. Line Following :
  • The robot uses the line sensors to follow the black line, making left and right turns as needed.
  • When the robot detects a three-way junction using both left and right sensors, it decides whether to go straight (for picking up the box), turn left (for placing the box), or continue straight after placing.
  1. Pick Box :
  • The robot moves straight at the first junction and stops at the Pick Location. It then closes the gripper to pick up the box and transitions back to line-following mode.
  1. Place Box :
  • At the second junction, the robot turns left and moves to the Place Location. It opens the gripper to release the box and returns to line-following mode.
  1. Maze Solving :
  • Inside the maze, the robot switches to using ultrasonic sensors to follow walls and avoid obstacles until it detects a black line again at the maze's exit.
  1. Ramp Traversal :
  • The robot uses increased motor power to climb the ramp after exiting the maze.

Yes I am super new to robot building. Need help for this project

Yes we also thought so

Not a MicroMouse.

Read the power requirements for all your devices, then add their maximum values. That should let you know if the batteries will be sufficient.

Which gripper would that be?

Does gripper somehow have to fit inside the 20x25 cm robot body?
