The theme of the project “Strategies for moving an autonomous robotic system” involves an analysis of several possible routes through an autonomous robotic system and guiding it through a maze to find the shortest way out. The guidance of this autonomous system takes place in a labyrinth. The autonomous robotic system is represented by a car that will have 2 drive wheels and a passive support wheel, which has the role of balancing the system. This car will be a HYBRID one, it will follow both the walls and the lines (strips) that make up the labyrinth. The line will be tracked by infrared sensors. There will be 3 ultrasonic sensors in the system to measure the distance or speed of the system from a detected object. The program must know that when the line appears to follow it and when it disappears to follow the wall, and for this it is necessary to know the tracking strategies through a maze and to analyze which of them is most useful to us.
