This paper presents the development of wall following and obstacle avoiding robot using a Fuzzy Logic Controller. The ultrasonic sensors are employed to measure the distances between robot and the wall, and between the robot and the obstacle. A low cost Raspberry Pi camera is employed to measure the left/right distance between the robot and the obstacle. The Fuzzy Logic Controller is employed to steer the mobile robot to follow the wall and avoid the obstacle according to the multi sensor inputs. The outputs of Fuzzy Logic Controller are the speeds of left motor and right motor. The experimental results show that the developed mobile robot could be controlled properly to follow the different wall positions and avoid the different obstacle positions with the high successful rate of 83.33%.

The mobile robotics industry is related to creating mobile robots that can move around in physical environments. Different types of mobile robot designs for obstacle avoidance have been experimented in the past based on different sensors, trajectory algorithms, etc. The chapter presents implementation details of different obstacle avoiding robots (OARs) using sensors, Bluetooth module, and IoT modules. The sensor-based obstacle-avoiding robots are designed using ultrasonic sensors and Arduino microcontrollers. Bluetooth-based obstacle-avoiding robots have been designed using Arduino mega and Bluetooth module and an Android application. IoT-based obstacle-avoiding robots can be designed in three different ways, using ethernet shield, node MCU, or Raspberry Pi. The IoT-based obstacle-avoiding robot using Raspberry Pi is the most popular mobile robot model that uses maximum on-chip modules in comparison to other designs, and also, the design can be extended by using cameras to use images for sensing the objects in order to avoid collisions.
