What happens when a fish becomes a driver? Check it out.

The location of the fish is detected using computer vision. Here the fish controls the car by swimming in a specific direction. You might have learned about arduino programming and would have built Line follower Robot, Light follower Robot and Pit avoider robot from our Advance level. This robot is also controlled by Arduino and the beagleboard!!

This prototype is mounted on a robotic car with four wheels.The Vehicle is controlled by an Arduino-a programmable microchip housed on a small circuit board.

A webcam is positioned at the top of the water tank which tracks the movement by detecting the contrast between the fish at the bottom of the tank and relays them to Arduino.The programmed chip then mimics the fish's movements by driving the vehicle in the same direction!!

Isn't it facinating!! Do you like to make one then why don't you start with basics of arduino programming from Advance level.
