A robot able to move around along pre-defined paths, and keep an estimation of its position from encoders in its wheels and central pivot.



Its mechanical structure allows it to go straight with 4 fixed direction wheels, and to turn precisely around a retractable central pivot.



After a round trip Odin will come back at its starting position with some position and bearing offset A light sensor placed below Odin enables it to return home guided by a L-shaped mark on the floor.

More details, images, video, programs and full building instructions available here.

Enjoy!

Philo
