While I know a few other people have done this before (even though I can't find anything online!), this is new to me. But I thought I'd give it a go anyway.

About the most economical way to install a compass is the Dinsmore analog unit. It has two analog outputs which you will need to do some serious processing on, they aren't sin and cos, so you have to do a sort of arctan and then lookup table (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)

I'm just getting into MS RIS 2.0 and started looking at some of the suggested code for line following.
