    This document describes a robotic vehicle that uses a metal detector circuit to sense metals ahead and alert the remote operator via an alarm. An 8051 microcontroller controls the robot's movement via RF signals from a remote and drives its motors. When metal is detected, the robot sounds an alarm. The design could be enhanced with a wireless camera so the operator can remotely view and control the robot.

    METAL DETECTOR ROBOTIC VEHICLE

    ABSTRACT

    The project is designed to develop a robotic vehicle that can sense metals ahead of

    it on its path similar to sensing land mines. The robot is controlled by a remote using RF

    technology. It consists of a metal detector circuit interfaced to the control unit that alarms

    the user behind it about a suspected land mine ahead. An 8051 series of microcontroller is

    used for the desired operation.

    At the transmitting end using push buttons, commands are sent to the receiver to

    control the movement of the robot either to move forward, backward and left or right etc.

    At the receiving end two motors are interfaced to the microcontroller where they are used

    for the movement of the vehicle. The RF transmitter acts as a RF remote control that has

    the advantage of adequate range (up to 50 meters) with proper antenna, while the receiver

    decodes before feeding it to another microcontroller to drive DC motors via motor driver

    IC for necessary work. A metal detector circuit is mounted on the robot body and its

    operation is carried out automatically on sensing a any metal underneath. As soon as the

    robot senses this metal it generates an alarm sound. This is to alert the operator of a

    possible metal (eg: land mine) ahead on its path.

    Further the project can be enhanced by mounting a wireless camera on the robot so

    that the operator can control the movement of the robot remotely by watching it on a

    screen.
