I must have made a hundred modificated versions of easy and fast robots like this one.
They are really fast and easy to do - it is quite fun to do quick … Read more
The robot measures line position with the 4 line sensors and feeds this to a PD-regulator which in turn produces the two motor outputs. This setup gives a smooth … Read more
