8a - Programming

Lesson 8 - EdPy

Line tracking is a very basic robotic behavior that is used in many automated factories and warehouses today. Will it be the same in the future? What will the workplace of the future look like with more robots?
Will it even exist?
8.1 – Line tracking sensor
In this activity, you will learn more the Edison robot’s line tracking sensor and how Edison can use this sensor to determine if it is on a reflective or non-reflective surface.
