Abstract: This study provides a robot industry-orientation training course which integrates the hardware circuits, firmware programming and shortest path algorithms into the implementation the line following maze robot. The objective of this work is to attract students¡¦ interest in industry skills such as design of hardware circuits, firmware programming and path-finding algorithms. The robot training course has several key components, including 1) the five sensors to detect the routing path (line position), 2)UART transmission and the corresponding firmware codes between two micro-controllers, 3) the robot motions with the corresponding firmware programming and 4) a shortest path algorithm for the tree-based routing map and path-merging algorithm for the cyclic-based routing map. After finishing this course, students learn many practical skills, including designing the sensors to guide the robot, developing a UART-based protocol and its corresponding firmware code for two!
micro-controllers, and implementing a shortest path algorithm for a tree-based map. Moreover, we also provide the programming exercise for the cyclic-based routing map. We merge the same paths after we analyze two different routing paths which are obtained through separate algorithms. Hence, total routing path could be further reduced. The price of this line-following maze robot is cheap (~USD$150) and the course materials, including the necessary theories for embedded systems, firmware for motion control, and the shortest path algorithms, are interesting to draw students¡¦ attentions. Finally, we design some questionnaire to measure the performance of students and modify the materials according the feedback from students.
