[Dprglist] Race car line follower

[John Swindle]

Looks like floor is paper or something else easily taped together. It is not a single piece of material. Really surprised the floor material doesn't buckle. Lots of inertia, or even if cart is light, there's lots of grip. Better than a slot car with wintergreen on the wheels. Floor must be really flat, or the suspension is critically tuned. Am I missing something?

 Murray,

Interesting, almost as fast as "time warp" in the LFS line following simulator!Would be neat to place a light source on robot and create a long exposure of the car running the path.

Also, interesting the markers placed around the course. I suppose those are there to provide information to the controller.

Hi,

This link was shared on a Personal Robotics channel, quite the impressive
race car line follower, a bit Formula 1:

It looks like the chassis might be PCB.

    The rice leaves in the garden
    Rustle in the autumn wind
    That blows through my reed hut.
