I have a school project where I have to build a robot that is autonomous. It has to go as quickly as possible (it's a race) in a goal which is 1x1x1 meters. There is a box in the middle of the trajectory with mesures 5x5x infinity (it is not possible to go over the box). The maximum weight is 2kg.The distance between the goal and the starting point is 30 meters. Any ideas??
It's the first time I'm programming. I had the idea to put sensor or lasers but I don't think it will be quick enough. I have the adurino Yun and I'm starting to learn how to program. Then I'll try to program with sensors and lasers.
OPs pic so that we don't have to download it. See this handy Image guide
How will your robot detect the box?
How will your robot detect the goal?
How will it differentiate between the two?
Don't concentrate on being fast. First, concentrate on getting the task done. Then, after it actually works, you can work on making it faster.
