Brinsk: seguidor de linha musical para introdução à engenharia

Abstract

The present work has the objective of reporting on the development of an innovative product that aims to introduce basic concepts of engineering for young people, like eletronics, programming and 3D printing, using music as attractive and vice versa. The project consists of a musical follow line robot and a mobile application connected by Bluetooth to the prototype for the reproduction of the musical notes assigned to the colors next to the black reference line of the track to be followed. Thereby, theoretical foundations were made based on concepts that have relevant importance for the development of this project. Among the concepts used are music (harmony, melody and rhythm), 3D printing (driver and software), programming (algorithms and softwares), electronics (voltage regulator, microcontroller and sensors) and design (software), in other words, process, equipment and materials used. Finally, each step of the project development was reported and the biggest problem was with regard to the chosen source of energy that presented adequate results for a good functioning, but with a short duration of load.
