A simple obstacle avoidance robot using an IR distance sensor with an IMU.

Project MODI was made to primarily explore the usefulness of the MODI Shield IR distance sensor with an Arduino when paired with a robot chassis. One cool feature of the MODI Shield IR distance sensor is that is has an IMU, which can be used to help control some basic functions of the robot such as starting and stoping..

The project should be very straight forward as the robot chassis is already assembled. We must first install the Arduino Uno to the robot chassis using three M3 screws.”
