We will look at where robots use line following and how it is useful. We will also learn about some of the different approaches taken to following paths in different robots, along with their trade-offs. You will see how to build a simple line-following track.

We will learn about some different algorithms to use and then choose a simple one. We will make a data flow diagram to see how it works, collect sample images to test it with, and then tune its performance based on the sample images. Along the way, we'll see more ways to approach ...
