Abstract :
Robots are used in different areas such as
industry, hospitals, defense industry, markets and
education with the developing technology. (Abdulhussein
& Hadi, 2020) Robots are machines that have the
capacity to do repetitive tasks quickly. (Moulay et al.,
2020) In addition, since robots work with high accuracy
and precision, they play an important role in minimizing
human errors. (Abdulhussein & Hadi, 2020)
Occupational accidents have decreased significantly,
thanks to the fact that dangerous jobs are done by robots
in the industry. (McGinn, 2020) In this way, the living
standard of humanity has increased. (Chatterjee, 2020)
The demand for robots to accompany these people is
increasing day by day, especially in countries where the
elderly and disabled population is increasing. (Kasaei et
al., 2021) Line-following robots (LFR) can be used when
people with disabilities move from one location to
another. Line follower robots are vehicles that can go to
the desired destination autonomously by following the
line drawn on the ground. They use sensors that read the
ground to reach the target. While they moves, they have
the ability to stop and warn when an obstacle appears in
front of them and to go around the obstacle at the same
time. For example, a visually impaired person can get to
know and learn about his/her surroundings by acting in
the company of a line-following robot in a working
environment where he/she starts to work for the first
time. Thus, it can be ensured that people with disabilities
are more employed in business environments. Disabled
individuals participate in training activities accompanied
by line-following robots, so there is no need to assign a
separate staff to them. Therefore, it is important that the
designs and algorithms in these robots are designed to
ensure the highest level of safety for disabled
individuals.At the same time, electronic elements such as
microcontroller, sensor, motor driver, which are parts of
the line follower robot, are used in the control of many
machines we use in our daily life.The control training of
LFR gives student coding and robot design skills.
