-:LINE FOLLOWING ROBOT:- One of the most basic autonomous robot you can build is a line following robot(LFR). This type of robot is run over a white surface which has an arbitrary path drawn over it by using back paint. The task of the robot is to run exactly along this painted path. You may note that the surface may also be black(or any other dark colour)‚ in that case the path is a light colour like white. Please watch the following video for a LFR in action.
