All,
This Sunday's TexLUG Austin meeting is
cancelled.
The robotic line follower contest
scheduled for 6/11 has been postponed.
Look for an announcement here for a

All,
Come on by the next Austin TexLUG meeting this coming
Sunday. (And yes, it *is* on Mother's Day. Show your
Mom you love her by getting out of the house for a
couple hours!) Particulars are below.
If you have a creation to show, bring it. I'll be
bringing tiles for the upcoming line-following
contest (the paint is drying as I type this), so if
you'd like to try out your 'bot before the 6/11
contest, now's the time.
For contest details, see:

See you there...
-Tim

Folks,
The Austin chapter of the Texas Lego Users Group
(TexLUG) is holding a robotic line following contest
on June 11, 2006.
In this line following contest, robots attempt to
complete a specified race course by following
a black line on a white background. The robot
completing three laps of the course in the shortest
time is the winner.
There will be two age groups for the competition,
under 13 years old, and 13 years and up.
Complete rules may be found here:
http://www.io.com/~rueger/lego/texlugaustin/line2006/
as well as helpful links to other line following
robots.
-Tim
