Boe-bot for The Chair Challenge II

Find out my new project here.

Hope it respect all parameters in the challenge:

"The Chair Challenge!"

Requirements:

  1. Robot can be placed in any position and place operator prefers before start
  2. Robot must then spin around it´s own center at least 10 times before step 3. (so we know it is actually navigating on it´s own)
  3. Now the robot should try to drive around each of the 4 legs of a chair, like the orange arrow

 

  • Result:
  1. Robot was placed at the chair left side, in it direction.
  2. The robot spins 10 times over itself before start the task.
  3. The robot drives around each of the 4 legs, like the orange arrow.
