Team members: Alex Colvin, Marisa Koldny, Alik Widge.
Robot strategy: Cover course by following walls at
various distances using reflective infrared.
Transmission is differential drive (one motor directly
coupled to each wheel).
A gate traps food, which
is retained in a lego chain trailing behind the robot.
(The flexible chain allows the robot to pass the
initial 1-foot-cubed size requirement.)
