VIDEO: Autonomously navigating a Robot around an obstacle course to catch projectiles

Part two of the project.

Unfortunately I had to move from the garage, so I have made a makeshift obstacle course upstairs. I’ve added a small takeout plastic box on top, with aluminum foil in the front to prevent balls from falling out while adding more surface area to catch them. This is still smaller than a cereal box.

The launcher, with the aid of a lot of duct tape, is finally held in place sturdily, and launching fairly consistently. Check it out below.
