The big Robot Race

On the 4th of October there was a big robot race. The idea was that the borg should follow a black line and then stop in the green goal zone. We used the same construction from the day before when we were working on it. We arrived at the university at 9 clock and we started immediately tweaking the software of the borg. The problem was not that it did not run too fast, more that it went too fast in the curves so that it missed the black line. So we were trying to come up with a balance of speed in both straight lanes and in curves.

The best time we got was 39.45 seconds and we could not repeat that run after that since we tried to improve the software and then the borg started to behave funny. Sometimes it refused to turn at all or missed very easy turns. So that ended up being our best time in the track.

Unfortunately there is no video to document this run since we were not expecting our best run at that point. But the borg will return next week to perform more stunts.
