      You could let your robot drop a block of white bricks (like 8x8x8 studs 
bug) and then let it turn until the light sensor on the other side picks 
it up. you could use a wire attached to the block to retrieve it into 
the original position.

  |  Hi all, we build a synchrodrive (without turntables) that has a freedom of about 100 degree. We used it in an orthogonal labyrint and it worked well. I'll post a message when our new hompage is available. There will be a detailed howto on this page (...)   (25 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)

  |  Or make the extending "foot" actually turn the robot and use some mechanical stops to ensure it only moves through 90 degrees. Admittedly, this would not be an elegant solution : )    (25 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
