Implementation of small scale automated supply chain management system

A college robotics competition project: an AVR microcontroller program for the Firebird V robot that navigates a fixed arena, detects colored packages via sensors, and deposits them in matching zones. This is a one-off academic submission from 2017, not a reusable library or framework.

The problem decomposition is straightforward — color sensing, path traversal, and deposition logic are distinct concerns in a constrained embedded environment. Writing bare-metal C for AVR with hardware peripherals (RGB LED, buzzer, motor control) at this level is decent practice for the domain. The rulebook PDF is included, so the constraints driving design decisions are documented.

No reuse value whatsoever — the code is hardwired to a specific robot kit, a specific arena layout, and a specific competition rulebook. The repo ships compiled .hex/.elf/.o binaries alongside source with no build instructions beyond the generated Makefile, so reproducing the build is unclear. Zero comments or documentation in the source itself. Dead since 2017 with 2 stars and no forks — there is no community, no maintenance, and no path forward.
