Line Following
Gadget’s line following software is based on the phenomenon of light. The IR (infrared) sensors contain transmitters and receivers called photodiodes. This allows the sensors to send and receive light that is reflected off a surface.
Gadget’s Functionality
Gadget come equipped with three basic functions that can be challenged through many different curricular activities with line following, object avoidance, and wireless controlled function.
Obstacle Avoidance
The use of sonar navigation or known as an ultrasonic sensor. This allow Gadget to sense obstacles in front of it, and avoid them by turning in a different direction. With the use of echolocation, it uses sound to bounce off objects to help in finding a place in its environment.
Wireless Controlled
With Gadget’s built-in software, Gadget can be manually controlled on any device with a WIFI connection with a push of a button!
