This is my first very simple robot that reads information from two IR sensors and makes decision about moving to work around barriers. The main aim was to make him as powerful as possible so 4 DC motors with two Tamiya 70168 double gearboxes was used in construction to implement 4x4 formula. Also manual controlling is possible using IR remote control from my old Pioneer CD-player. New revision with improved design:
