“In order to move around without becoming stuck or damaged, a robot needs to monitor and respond to its environment. This ability is made possible by sensors triggering certain navigational responses. The sensor robot project has two challenges: You will add a front sensor that will keep the robot from bumping into walls and objects in its path and you will program the robot to execute an avoidance maneuver in response to each sensor.”
