Following lines, detecting colors, responding to light. It is still far from "seeing", but the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 & NXT sensors could be very useful when used properly.
Umjaho - from the language of the Zulu tribe. It means "competition"
This LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot has three sensors - touch, color and ultrasonic. When the touch sensor is pressed the robot starts moving. The color sensor is used for following lines and the ultrasonic sensor is used to detect any robots in front of the robot.
This is the simplest possible line following robot. It has just one sensor in the front between the two driving wheels and uses beams as pivots instead of a third wheel. Try it out. Follow the building instructions and start following lines in a number of minutes.
