Zumo Sumo Robot in Webots
A simulated Pololu Zumo-style sumo robot in Webots, with distance and infrared sensors, four-wheel drive and a reactive C++ controller.
Team project.
What was built
We made a robot model, a circular dojo and a reactive controller with flags on a 64 ms loop. The robot has three distance and three infrared sensors. It drives forward when nothing is detected and spins in place when a threshold is crossed. Edge detection with the infrared sensors is not implemented. Separate Arduino sketches for Zumo 32U4 robots cover line and border sensing, infrared communication and a sumo state machine.
