Assignment 3: Color Following
Assignment 3: Color Following - Rescue Phase 1
The goal of this project is to build a robot that can follow a dark
line on a white mat with light sensors to successfully complete the first-room of RoboCupJunior Rescue.
Rules
- After the starter's verbal command, your group should start their
robot and the timer will start.
- You should assume the line will curve gently. Specifically, the radius
of curvature for all turns wil be at least 10cm.
- Your group can give resets, but the first reset will give a 10
second penalty and future resets will double (i.e. reset #1 - 10 s. penalty, reset #2 - 20 s,
reset #3 - 40 s, ...).
- When your robot travels over green tape or alumnium foil, it should sing (i.e. beep or
play some tones).
What to turn in
You will submit materials on Blackboard under the Assignments
section. There should be one submission per team.
- Demonstrate at student workshop on 1/28
- Writeup: Due by 5pm on 2/1
- Check the standard writeup guidelines
- This writeup should also describe any hurdles you overcame in:
- Programming your robot (e.g. handling both the line following and
color detection)
- Constructing your robot (e.g. how did you decide how many light
sensors to use? how did you position them?)
- Your code.
