This Microbric Viper robot is using a laser based obstacle detector for determining how far obstacles are. I built the obstacle detector using a wireless webcam and a laser pointer. For more information, check out http://ashishrd.blogspot.com

  • Nice work :) you never fail to impress!

  • Thanks ProgramerGirl :)

  • How do you put the program into that camera/car? the C++ laser program

  • The program isn't in the car or camera. It is on my computer.

  • Thats awesome!!! I have a question though, how exactly does it detect a wall structure. I know it uses a laser but I would like to know the process. Great job man!

  • Thanks :) It checks the position of the laser dot in the camera's field of view. Based on how far the dot is from the center, it determines how far the obstacle is. You'll much more detailed information on my blog ashishrd[dot]blogspot[dot]com
