Considerations
• Vehicle rear part requirements for the
vehicle behind: flat and high, light color
• It may use touch sensor based bumper,
ultrasonic distance sensor, IR sensor,
etc.
• Must work together with the robot in front
and the robot behind – very important!!
• Do not leave any piece on the course
