Hello,
Welcome to the blog post of our Tracking Robot project, which we are continuing to build with my university friend and comrade, @UD.If you are reading this article for the first time, you can learn about the process by reading the previous article with Tracking Robot 

To explain briefly, we will design our UWB sensor-based Tracking Robot, which we prepared as a graduation project at our university, on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform from scratch.In this design process, we will take advantage of every opportunity that the 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides us. We will inform you of our progress at certain intervals.

Now that we are slowly coming to the end of our Robot, I would like to convey the latest developments to you..

We created the distance-based tracking algorithm of our robot together with calculations on paper. According to this algorithm, our robot will calculate 3 different distances using the x, y and z coordinates of the 3 anchors it has and the tag on the person it will follow.The reason why we use 3 different Anchors and 3 different distances is to with position the Sensors in front, right and left of the robot . İts can rotate 3 different directions and follw the target.Our robot will calculate the point at the intersection of the 3 with 3 different distances, 1 meter apart. The reason why the distance is 1 meter is to keep the distance of security basically. In other words, if our robot is 1 meter away from the target, it will follow it and if the distance is less than 1 meter, it will stop directly to avoid hitting it. If we take into account the delays, 1 meter will be enough for us.

Our algorithm, in which we use a total of 4 Uwb Sensors, consisting of 3 anchors and 1 Tag, basically works like this.

Our next goal will be to code the algorithm on the paper we created.
