This thesis presents the development of Line Tracking Robot by using digital microcontroller namely Peripheral Interface Controller (PIC). The PIC applied to be a controller of dc motors as output and infrared (IR) color sensors as input. The application used the pulse signal control to vary the voltage of the DC supply. The IR color sensors used to detect the deferent between two colors. The differences of the two colors give signal to the PIC. The robot is in a shape of a square box, which is consisting of four omni directional wheels that place in two directions, two tires on vertical and the other two on horizontal. The robot had an arm that able to picking and lifting a trophy. The robot move in 'L' shape which is move by following the existing black line. The task of this robot is to take the trophy and place the trophy at the start place.
