Part two of this project is located here.

This page outlines the first two weeks of a four week project. In this lab you will design, build, and program a robot that can traverse a maze. You will work in teams of four.

None.

• Each team must design, build and program a Mindstorm robot that can traverse a maze similar to the one shown below.
  
• Your robot must accommodate the following conditions:
  • The maze will consist of black electrical tape on a light surface.
  • You may use any part from the two Mindstorm kits that you have at your disposal.
  • Your robot should be a left wall follower. That is, it should follow the wall to its left as shown below:
    
  • The robot should stop and do something interesting when it hits the physical wall at the end of the maze.
• Note: When designing your solution to this assignment, keep in mind that in the second part of this project you will need to count line crossings and communicate with the second brick over the internet You should be careful that your solution for this part of the assignment doesn't use parts that will need to be dedicated to the solution to part II of this project.
• Your grade will be based on performance (time required to successfully navigate the maze) and, design, and creativity.

You must demonstrate that your robot can successfully navigate the maze provided by your instructor.

This assignment was developed by Dr. Eric Durant and Dr. Chris Taylor.
