In this project, we will create a Line-following, Maze-solving bot which can find the shortest path in the given maze.

Artifical Intelligence, Control Systems, Embedded C, Graph algorithms, Electronics, Basics of PCB design

• Learn to design PCB and understand the design of PCB used in MazeBlaze bot
• Understand and improvise electronic components used in MazeBlaze bot
• Testing Line-sensor-array, motor drivers and interfacing encoders.
• Implementing left follow rule
• Implementing path planing

To download and use this code, the minimum requirements are:

• ESP_IDF
• Windows 7 or later (64-bit), Ubuntu 20.04 or later
• Microsoft VS Code or any other IDE

Clone the project by typing the following command in your Terminal/CommandPrompt

git clone https://github.com/PritK99/MazeBlaze-v2.1.git 

Navigate to the MazeBlaze-v2.1 folder

cd MazeBlaze-v2.1

Once the requirements are satisfied, you can easily download the project and use it on your machine. After following the above steps , use the following commands to:

To activate the IDF

get_idf

To build the code

idf.py build

To flash the code

idf.py -p (PORT) flash monitor

• Implementing better algorithms for Maze solving such as DFS, BFS, Djikstra's algorithm etc. on the bot
• Improve on the design and model of MazeBlaze-v2.1
• Achive higher speeds by increasing the efficiency of bot
