Another idea would be to get a big piece of dry erase (white board).

I got a 4x8 ft piece from Home Depot for about $10.

Then, your ant could draw all over the 'floor'.  You could put a black 'wall' around the edge, to keep your robot inside.

This also works well for as line following course (with electrical tape) or a test sumo ring.

Subject: Ant pheromones


As I wrote in my last mail I'm planing to build a system for robots guidance
and communication similar to ants. I can't get a big enough paper and I
can't paint my floor so anyone has an idea of how to 'draw' a path without
damaging my floor. The idea of using lego pieces is good but the robot could
accidentaly move them and miss the path.
Best wishes,
Jonathan
