Infrared sensor keeps Hyper Line Tracker on course.

HYPER LINE TRACKER is an "obedient" robot whose sole purpose in life is to follow a black line on a white background similar to mail couriers used in large corporations. This cyber bug possesses a sonic tracking system, and is fortified with a multitude of sensors: photo transistors to detect a black line. Tracking memory to memorize its last track of the black line, and two red LEDs that flash to tell you which side of the light sensor is activated.

What this all means is that HYPER LINE TRACKER is the fastest line navigator that we have ever seen. follows a course of your own design! By using an infrared emitter, light sensor circuitry, and tracking memory, it demonstrates how robots "see" a pathway. Make a path with a black felt marker or black tape and watch how infrared sensors enable the robot's motors to make course corrections.
