Assignment 2: Line Following
Assignment 2: Line Following
The goal of this project is to build a robot that can follow a dark
line on a white mat.
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, ...).
What to turn in
You will submit materials on Blackboard under the Assignments
section. There should be one submission per team.
- Demonstrate at class on 1/25
- Writeup: Due by end of the day on 1/27
- Check the standard writeup guidelines
- This writeup should also describe any hurdles you overcame in:
- Programming your robot (e.g. adjusting the tolerances for detection of
light vs. dark)
- Constructing your robot (e.g. making effective housings for the light sensors)
- Your code.
