This project is a follow up of a previous project, Laverna. Compared to the previous one, we used a custom 3D printed chassis (Fork of Brandon Makridis's design), invested more into ligher materials & moved to an Arduino Nano for decreasing size and implementing on a breadboard for better modularity.
All turns are independently handled. That means PID is turned off at turns and Laverna uses a simple way of tackling Acute, Obtuse and Right angles.
We secured a place in top 3 positions for 6 out of the 8 participated line follower competitions conducted across different colleges in Kerala during 2019-20. Notables ones are NIT Calicut (Tathva 19), College of Engineering Trivandrum (Escape 19) & CDAC (Techfiesta 2K20).
All Libraries are included in the repository, upgrade after trying out the included one.
