AsimUFF Mini-Sumo Robot

Introduction

The AsimUFF Mini-Sumo Robot's source code and documentation, developed at UFF, are housed in this repository. Equipped with advanced sensors and motors, it's crafted for competing in mini-sumo tournaments.

Components

• 2 x DRV8833 H-Bridge Motor Drivers (one for each motor)
• 2 x N20 Micro Motors
• 3 x QRE1113 Line Sensors
• 5 x JS40F Distance Sensors
• Microstart
• 4-position DIP Switch
• Arduino Micro

Directory Structure

• tests: Contains test scripts to verify the functionality of individual components.

  • constants.h: Header file with constants used in test scripts.
  • tests.ino: Arduino sketch for running component tests.

• minisumo: Main directory for the robot's operational code.

  • constants.h: Header file with constants used across multiple modules.
  • minisumo.ino: Main Arduino sketch for the robot's operation.
  • motors.cpp & motors.h: Control logic for the motors.
  • sensors.cpp & sensors.h: Integration and management of sensor data.
  • strategies.cpp & strategies.h: Decision-making algorithms for competition.

Setup & Installation

To set up and run the Mini-Sumo Robot, follow these steps:

1. Ensure all components are correctly wired according to PINS.
2. Install the Arduino IDE from the official website.
3. Clone this repository to your local machine.
4. Open the minisumo.ino file with the Arduino IDE.
5. Compile and upload the sketch to your Arduino Micro.

Testing

Before competing, it's essential to test each component and functionality of the robot:

1. Navigate to the tests directory.
2. Open and upload the tests.ino sketch to the Arduino.
