Abstract :
This paper is about the development of a prototype spherical robot in UniKL MFI under Industrial Automation Department. There are two phases of development. The first phase of development is to design the basic spherical robot mechanical structure using acrylic plastic and with the integration of a microcontroller ATmega 328P on Arduino UNO, accelerometer and a gyrosensor. The second phase is to improve the mechanical structure and interface with android application as the wireless control. The prototype movement process also will allow an entry signal from accelerometer and gyro sensor to make the prototype balanced.
