In STEM this term, we have to make a linefollowing robot using the LEGO EV3 Mindstorms Robotics kit.
Last year, around Term 2, I entered a competition on behalf of the school called RoboCup Junior, in the Rescue line Secondary Division. In that competition, I was already using a program called EV3dev, which boots the EV3 Brick (pretty much refered to as 'the brick' in this repo) with Debian. This allows me to write my programs for the brick in Python, which is a large step up from the drag-and-drop block language which you would be otherwise locked into. The code from that competition will be heavily used throughout this project and the original files can be found in the folder '2024_RoboCup'
For this unit, I will be stepping it up a notch. Instead of running with normal sized tile, I will be using small tile, which have tighter corners and present some difficuty with the generally large Lego Robots.
