what is a arios sensor, please explaine
it may be that i am the only one who dose not know
-
joker94 i m with u ..............i too dun't know what is arios sensor.
please explain it to me too please

i google it and came up with nothing, all i found was somthing to do with sabath
-
same here... some transformers dude...
TS, do you have a link to what you are referring?
-
http://www.ario.com.tw/ (http://www.ario.com.tw/)
this is a company called ariose / ario. they dont appear to have any kind of sensors that could be used for path finding tho...
-
the only appear to make speakers and microphones, neither of which appear to be useful for a pathfinding robot. either MohdAsyrof has no idea what he's attempting to do, or we've found the wrong ariose.....
@MohdAsyrof:
what kind of sensor(s) are you using? if you could provide us with information about them we might be able to help you.
-
i see, i thought it was the name of a particular sensor not a company ;D
-
me too ;D

its really looks like my 'v' key is not functioning very well... "don't know how to build a path finding robot using a various sensor".. sory 4 the trouble.. :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[
-
ahh, ok lol... that makes more sense...
is various a type of sensor or do you mean any sensor?
-
I think MohdAsyrof meant any kind of sesnor. my preference is to use a scanning Sharp IR, an IR mounted on a servo or stepper, for obstacle detection. The IR rangefinders have a thin beam which is good for scanning. I like to use sonar for getting more accurate ranging data.
-
lol, yea, that v helps us a lot. i have used IR sensors for pathfinding before. sharp ir sensors are very easy to use. i'd say go with them. if you don't need the high accuracy that is, readings can vary on what surface it is. different surfaces give different readings. sharp ir is generally cheaper than sonar, but sonar is more accurate

Wouldn't IR Sensors and sonar be for object avoidance, not line following. Also if I am wrong please correct me, but if an ir sensor is to be used for line following (I don't think it is possible) wont you have problems with the thresh hold since ir sensors can't see within usually 2 inches.

Offy, the question asked in this topic is about path-finding, not line-following. For path-finding you could use a Sharp IR or sonar as these are ranging sensors and you need to avoid (or find) objects to determine the path to follow.
Indeed, you would not be able to use either Sharp IR or sonar for line-following. Although you could use IR reflectance sensors for example.

My bad. I wasn't thinking when I posted that. Should of read it better
