Github Repository

https://github.com/karpenet/IARCbot

Problem Statement

Design a fully autonomous robot to follow a black/white line on a white/black surface and then follow a rigid wall either on the left, right or both sides. While following a line, avoid blue colored obstacles by circumventing them from the left and avoid red colored obstacles by circumventing them from the right.
