Now that you've established basic communications with your robot, it's time to build a bot for the RC Challenge:

Create a robot that can navigate an obstacle course using commands received from a remote computer. The object is to navigate the course as quickly as possible. I strongly recommending stability and durability in addition to speed.

You are allowed to try to disable other robots in the race using "weapons" (keep in mind that you have to be fast enough to catch another robot to deploy any weapons, and this may be unlikely, so focus more on speed instead of cool weapons).

You may use any parts in your standard kit, including ones we haven't used yet. Extra motors or sensors are fine, and I can help you program ones we haven't tried in class. You may not use items outside of the standard kit.

You may not attack another robot's command and control interface (connecting to it, issuing a denial of service, etc).

During the race, you may not touch your robot physically. Make sure its strong and stable!
