Title: sensor placement
Post by: canatan on June 02, 2009, 09:41:23 AM

we're making a line tracking robot that runs off the line but along it...
so there was one sensor protruding from the front left corner..
and then our seniors asked us to put one in the back left corner and one in the middle next to the wheels for detecting junctions..
can someone explain to me how thats supposed to work??

Are you currently using just 1 sensor to follow to follow the right edge of the line?
