About project

Aim of this project is to create a robot capable of crawling through a maze consisting of black tape on the floor, using LEGO NXT MINDSTORMS brick. The program ends when robot reaches an object in front of him.

Ingredients (hardware):
LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT brick
ultrasonic sensor (1x)
color sensor (1x)
(light sensor) (1x)
NXT servo motors (2x)
many, many lego bricks and parts
Due to the lack of sensors (only one color/light sensor + perhaps one more which will not save the day) the maze specifications were modified:
- the maze path is the black tape, i.e. black tape does not represent walls, but the path the robot follows
- crossroads may occur only in certain distances (robot will check, whether crossroad exists after moving by specific length)
