CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
This chapter discuss about the brief overview about the project such as introduction, objective, scope of study and research methodology.
1.1 Project Introduction
This project about to build the soccer robot that has to explore and analyze an unknown maze consisting of squares of a known fixed size. An important sub-goal is to
keep track of the robot’s position, measured in squares in the x- and y- direction from the starting position. By referring to Figure 1.2 the soccer robot explores the maze by
using exploration algorithms and that algorithm is wall-following and recursive exploration method that interface into the robot. This robot has function only on the
maze and tries to solve the difficult maze. This project has divide by 3 important elements to success and that important element as shown in Figure 1.1.

Output The motion of robotic to
solve the maze
1.2 Objective
The objective and priority had been locate and been top listed because to ensure the positive progress of the development system. The objective is listed as below:
i To build the instruction using C language.
ii To implement the maze exploration algorithm.
iii To download c language into the soccer robot.
1.3 Scope of Project
The scope of project will decide the limitation in completing this project. It is important to make sure the project follows as planned. The scope of this project is
included:
a The C Language Software
The project is focus assemble on the mobile robot and generate the program by using the C language software to perform a number of instructions. The C language
software used to compile and interface the data by implement into the robot. The program that created by C language software suppose to control and manipulate the
mobile robot in order by saving that program into the Eyebot controller.
b Eyesim Simulator
The Eyesim simulator is introduced that has function as a tool which allows construction of simulated robot environment with using c language and testing of mobile
robot program before they are used on the real robot.
c Eyebot Software
The Eyebot software used to compile and as decoder C language code and generate to hexadecimal code that Eyebot controller on the mobile robot can understand
that instruction and make the robot to function.
d Soccer Robot
The soccer Robot is type of mobile robot was used in this project that reprograms by C language and has function to solve any type of maze using PSD sensor.
