Abstract
The final result of our project is a four wheeled vehicle with front wheel steering and rear wheel drive, which we named Hardware Implemented Reactionary Robotic Algorithm (HIRRA). It is equipped with a variety of sensors such as whiskers, sonar and photocells. These sensors help the vehicle avoid any obstacles on its path towards the brightest light in its environment, it's final destination. Once an object is detected via the whisker sensors, the car begins maneuvering around it. If the sonar detects an object the car will immediately veer away in order to avoid the object entirely. Finally if no object is in the vehicles path it will go towards the strongest light source as detected by the photocells. Once the vehicle reaches its final destination under the light, it comes to a stop.
