We didn’t have many sensors last year as we were well.... rookies
.
This year we are planning to work with an IR sensor mounted on the wheels for distance calculation (and we have a working prototype), and we used opto sensors for line following, we also had some limit switches for various purposes.
We are actually shopping around these days for a more reliable sensor for distance calculation, so if someone can recommend something more reliable and simple, please let us know
.
Thanks,
Vivek.
