ROVIE: Line-Following & Obstacle-Avoiding Rover
An ESP32-based 4WD rover that follows lines and avoids obstacles, using TCRT5000 IR sensors, an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, and an L298N motor driver.
I’m Ifeanyi Chukwuemeka, a Mechatronics Engineering student. I build embedded systems and robots that solve real problems.
Based in Nigeria · Building in public
I’m a Mechatronics Engineering student at the Federal University of Technology, Akure, learning and experimenting with embedded systems, robotics, and the software that brings physical systems to life. I build robots and gadgets, and my builds have won contests, such as ROVIE.
My current toolkit is C (pure and embedded), embedded C++, MATLAB, and CAD. I approach engineering through first principles and systems thinking: I like understanding how things work, then turning that understanding into prototypes that are useful, functional, and actually work.
I want to work in robotics, whether in research or hands-on, building the hardware and writing the software that brings robots to life. I’m open to collaborations, projects, and roles in robotics and embedded systems. Feel free to get in touch.
Microcontrollers, firmware, sensors, communication protocols, and real-time behaviour.
Building robotic systems and learning the foundations of perception, motion, control, and autonomy.
Modelling physical systems and developing the control logic that makes machines behave predictably.
Moving from breadboards toward proper electronics, PCB design, mechanical design, and integrated systems.
Small systems, experiments, and larger projects that document my progression as an engineer.
