For our project at school, we have to programm the formula flowcode buggy and let the buggy drive into a maze.
We programmed the buggy to follow lines.
We put a long line with tape, through or class room, and the buggy followed that line perfectly.
Then we just build a big maze (check the photo of our maze below this message ) .
But here starts the problem.
The buggy takes the first left hand corner easily.
After that corner follows a straight part.
After that straight part follows a right hand corner, and here will start the problem.
The buggy takes a big corner to the right and he will hit the wall in front of him.
This happens only with right hand corners, because when you pick up the buggy and let him drive further to the next left hand corner, he will take that corner perfectly again, just as the first left hand corner, and the width of the corners is on every place of the maze, the same size, so about 18 centimeters.
So our question is, does somebody recognise this problem, our does somebody know a solution for this problem, please give us a sign with a personal message, or a reaction below.
