About this manual

The Robot Hunter project report documents the development of a distributed sensing and control system consisting of a base station and a mobile rover. It outlines the motivation, problem statement, component selection, and system architecture, including wireless communication and sensor integration.

The report includes detailed circuit diagrams, I/O pin charts, code listings for both the base station and rover, a cost estimate for all components, and a picture gallery showing the assembled system and its operation in the arena.
