3 Photoresistors.
« on: May 23, 2010, 03:06:03 AM »
I was thinking about making my own robot this time and was just thinking,
If I were to have three photo resistors instead of two, would it be more efficient If I varied the angle that it turns and what not?

If it is then I might try it.

Is this for a line-following robot?

The more sensors you have, the better your robot knows about the light conditions, so if it is programmed properly then it should be better

Yep, it'd be fine. Are you thinking left center and right?

Sorry I should have said that this robot is meant to be a photovore.

Yeah I am thinking left, center and right. So I just need to play around with the code I guess to get the results.
