eventually and hopefully, i have a theory of a basic one to learn somewhat of its surroundings

have a distance sensor and have it on a servo so it will turn when it starts up to like scan a room, then it will keep it in its memory and its position, then as it moves it will have encodes on its wheels and then it will use a math formula to determine the distance it moved from the counts on the encoder then plots its position, but then to make it better you can have something like on a optical mouse encase of somehting like sand or ice where ur wheels will turn and you wont move and a stall sensor wont be efficient
