I'm planning to make a land mine detector for a competition. Can i get some suggestions for this?
A playfield of 240 x 240x 5 cm (5 cm being the width, the base plywood and another plywood at 5cm height). The playfield will have a boundary of 5 cm height. There will be sand patches (5 cm x 5 cm) around the field, into which the mines will be hidden. The mine is laid throughout the playfield (at the intersection of grid lines) in the form of iron discs (of diameter 3cm and thickness 0.5cm, maximum weight 100 gm). The mines will be at a maximum depth of 3cm. The field has two homes. The two autonomous bots will start from their respective homes and will have to detect mines in the field and then dig the mine out of the sand and place it outside the pit within a time limit of 5mins. The bot has to have an indicator, electric or mechanical (e.g. - led bulbs) that will be used to indicate the detection of a mine. Each mine will have an alphabet associated with it, so that the judges can note down the alphabet. The Gaming arena will have 2 cm thick white lines forming a grid. The mines will be placed on the intersections of the lines.
YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO USE ANY PRE-MANUFACTURED COMPONENTS EXCEPT ICs and BASIC ELECTRONIC COMPONENETS.
Planning to use the following:
1. Wheel system for the movement of the robot.
2. Use a microcontroller to move along a pre defined path. Once it starts along a corner. Using the microcontroller, i'll ask it to move 68cm to the left diagonally until it arrives at the intersection of the grid line and then rotate 45 degrees and then start moving in a straight way. Problem is i don't know how to program a microcontroller to carry out the required job. Can someone advice me where to start?
3. I want to use a metal detector to detect if the coin is under the sand or not. Then switch on a driller that can dig out the sand. The problem is which type of driller has to be used so that when it starts digging it brings out the sand at the same time?
4. Once the drilling is obstructed, i detect the stop of the motor and them convert the driller into an electromagnet and then pickup the metal object. So the driller's shape should be suitable to lift up things. I don't have any idea about the shapes because i'm an Electronics Student.
5. How do I avoid collision between two robots?
6. How do i detect if the metal piece was picked up by and electromagnet. If it picked it, i want it to drop it somewhere nearby.
This is my first robotics project. I don't know a thing about the field. I'll keep this thread active. I'd be really grateful if someone could help me out with this project. Please help...
