AutoBuggy

This project is an autonomous obstacle-avoidance RC car built with C++ and Arduino. The system integrates servo motors, an ultrasonic ping sensor, turn-signal LEDs, and an RFID RC-522 reader. The car only activates when an authorized RFID tag is scanned, then continuously measures the distance to nearby objects, signals its intended direction, and adjusts its motors to avoid collisions.

I developed and refined the system through repeated hardware and software testing, using serial logs and live sensor readings to diagnose issues with wiring, motor control, timing, and obstacle-detection thresholds. The project demonstrates my ability to integrate hardware components, program an embedded system, and iteratively debug real-world device behavior.
