Hi Anders,

Nice robot! I like your bumper design, how does it perform at frontal
impact?


If the front 'tube' (what's it really called?) hits, both sensors are
activated, and the robot backs up a bit, and turns (this function was what
caused the need for NQC - can't combine two sensors with the CM software).

Great idea: having the 'tilt bumper' at the back of the robot!!



Yes, I like it :-), but I think the 'tacho speed/motor speed comparison'
method could do the same job, freeing one sensor. Of course, if this sensor
hits something when we _are_ travelling backwards, we're in trouble (Hmm,
could test for motor direction also...?)!

Haven't had the time to test anything yet - today was spent on my youngest
boy's birthday (9 now) party!
