Synopsis

Line Follower Robot for Library Inventory Management

System
Objective:
Generally we can see in the library number of persons will be reading books and
after reading they should be returned to the same place so that it will be useful for other
to pick the same book to read. If the readers as misaligned then it will be difficult to find
from others and even to librarian. It takes lot of time and even in the large libraries the
searching of proper books will be difficult to normal persons who will enter the library for
the first time. Normally such persons should take help of the librarian. Then once again
the work load will be more for the librarian and this becomes late process to approach.

To eliminate this problems which we have stated above we are going to

implement “ Line follower Robot for Library Inventory Management System “ which
as done in the IEEE paper December 2010

Functional Description:
In this project We have used DC Motor Driver, DC Motors, Line Sensors,
Obstacle Sensor, Keyboard, LCD, RF ID Reader, SEEPROM and Buzzer with the Micro
Controller.

Here we are going to construct the Robotic model by using the DC Geared
motors. We have given Keyboard on the robot which will be useful for the user. The
user can enter the name of the book with the help of the keyboard. In this project we will
store the book place and name in the Non volatile memory SEEPROM. So if any user
requested for those particular book then robot will take him to that particular place
where the book is placed. This robot will move by sensing the line drawn on the floor. It
has the Obstacle detector so that it will stop when someone comes in front of robot. And
it is also useful for the Librarian to make proper inventory management. Robot will move
in a line and checks for the order of books which are placed on the racks. Here all the
books in this library will have the RF Tags. Robot contains RF tag reader so by this it
read’s and conforms the book. If the books in the racks are misaligned then it stops in
that particular place and activates the alarm so that the librarian comes to know about
this misalignment. And he can align in proper manner.
