Hey! Welcome to the official repository of my Autonomous Car called Linerover. During my first year of computer science, I worked on the Linerover, and it was the final product for the Project System module at Saxion University.
I wrote this project in C++ using the Arduino framework, which I learned by following multiple classes at my university and doing a lot of research online. By combining a very intelligent IDE like Clion by Jetbrains, and Platformio, I was able to write and test my code very efficiently.
#include "Linerover.h"
bool RUNNING = false;
bool LOGGING = false;
void setup() {
// Configure the linerover logger
if (LOGGING) Logger::configure(Pins::SERIAL_BAUD);
// Linerover#startEngine() is used to enable the car, initialize all the controllers,
// and make sure everything is ready before driving/looping
Linerover::startEngine();
// Set the global boolean variable to true for the loop function to start working
RUNNING = true;
}
void loop() {
// Having a while loop will give us the ability to stop looping
// whenever we want, without killing/stopping the entire program.
while (RUNNING) {
if (!(RUNNING = Linerover::drive())) break;
}
}
  
  
The hardware for the Linerover was partly delivered to us, however, we were free to choose what kind of sensors we wanted to use.
- Arduino UNO
- Ishima - RC 390 motor (ISH-010-021)
- Ishima - 3-wire Steering Servo (ISH-010-056)
- Ishima - Li-ion Battery 7.4V, 2400mAh (ISH-010-020)
- VNH2SP30 (Motor Shield)
- 1x Iduino ST1099 Ultrasonic sensor (Echo Sensor)
- 5x ST1140 (Infrared Sensor)
- DC/DC Buck Converter
