Re: A Reminder of Simplicity

The problem with dead reconking is that you are blind. Sensors give you some sort of input into the outside world. So, if someone rams into you, code based on the IR sensors will still function properly (provided the bot can shove pretty well!) ... or if the robot is placed down in a position where it veers off to one side, the IR code will not be effected ... and other examples abound.

SO far as the batteries, I believe you can only use the 2 they provide in the kit. I'm sure someone will get around to posting the specific rule, but I've got to be off ...
