Project Lab 1, Spring 2009 - A Non Traditional Line Following Robot "Sneak Peak"

So the spring 2009 semester is quickly coming to end here in Lubbock and that means that projects should be nearing completion. This semester we were tasked with building a line following robot controlled by an FPGA, but there was a twist. Instead of traditional line followers that detect the line by optical means we had to build sensors that would detect a line of aluminum tape. I'll have a lot more details over the next week or two but for now I've posted a quick video clip after the break.

Again I'll have more details over the next few weeks, complete with more photos, video, development details and of course the operating code.
