Then I can know exactly where I am according to the lights and eventually according to the spider legs.
If there is only 1 light straight ahead then the sum of the tilt would be zero, and my robot will have to go straight ahead.
Tell me if you think this idea is good

Ahhhh, young grasshoper, you are on the right path. As lead coder of our team, I reaaaaalllly should start working on the code.
