If you look on the video, at the front of the "lid", there are 3 ultrasonic sensors we are trying to use for obstacle avoidance. They are currently getting too many false positives, we're guessing, from the floor. We will try to improve it some more this afternoon.  |
I made an autonomous rc car with obstacle avoidance using ultrasonic sensors.
Some of the false positives may be caused by vibration; I was getting a lot and I read it in a thread from 2006 here. I then mounted my ultrasonic sensors on foam to damped the vibration and they worked much better.
