Duration: 4 months
Role: Student
Status: Completed

An Arduino C++ sophomore project: a car that detects and follows light sources.

Arduino C++ Photoresistors Motor Driver PWM

Overview

A small autonomous car that uses photoresistors to detect light direction and navigate toward it while handling basic avoidance.

Highlights

  • Analog sensor reading
  • PWM Motor control
  • Basic obstacle handling with sonar range finder
  • Capacitive touch sensor for speed control

Result

Reliable tracking under varied lighting with smooth motor response.
