1) Following Dark Lines
•
Searches for a dark line
(e.g. black tape)
•
Drives along the line
•
Accelerates on straight
stretches and brakes in curves
Circuit: Shadow Follower / Acceleration Mode
With the distance between the outer two sensors you
can adjust the accuracy with which varikabi is
supposed to drive on the line. Ideally, they are a little
o
ff
the line. If they are too close to the line, varikabi
will permanently adjust the direction and drive
serpentines.
In addition, it will not be able to activate its turbo,
because for this more light must fall on the outer
sensors than on the one in the center.
