Articulate Steer Robot

Abstract

Articulate steer Robot (ASR) is a mobile robot whose motions can be controlled by the user by giving specific voice commands. The speech is received by a microphone and processed by the voice module. When a command for the robot is recognized, then voice module sends a command message to the robot’s microcontroller. The microcontroller analyzes the message and takes appropriate actions. The objective is to design a walking robot which is controlled by servo motors. When any commands are given on the transmitter, the EasyVR module will take the voice commands and convert the voice commands into digital signals. Then these digital signals are transmitted via ZIGBEE module to the robot. On the receiver side the other ZIGBEE module receives the command from the transmitter side and then performs the respective operations. The Hardware Development board used here is ATmega 2560 development board. In ATmega 2560 there are 15 PWM channels which are needed to drive the servo motors. Addition to this there is camera which is mounted in the head of the robot will give live transmission and recording of the area. The speech-recognition circuit functions independently from the robot’s main intelligence [central processing unit (CPU)]. This is a good thing because it doesn’t take any of the robot’s main CPU processing power for word recognition. The CPU must merely poll the speech circuit’s recognition lines occasionally to check if a command has been issued to the robot. The software part is done in Arduino IDE using Embedded C. Hardware is implemented and software porting is done.
