Abstract

I am Boe Boy …“what can i do for u ?“

- Follow the line [ 3 QTI Line sensor detecting white or black –programmed with specific commands in every case]
- Capability of detecting obstacles and avoiding them …[ one ParallaxPingSensor –watch out it is not headspeakers lol- detecting the obstacles in front ]


he can not fly … but he will always be capable of walking that Austrian line
