Roving the Line with the PASCObot

In this investigation students experiment with the PASCObot Line Follower to determine what color tape will work the best. They experiment to find the sharpest turn it can make while following a line. They create a line track to experiment to find the effect of the number of line segments on travel time. They program the PASCObot to stop if it encounters the end of the line.
