This is by no means an Official reply, but I know David is mad at his computer, and e-mail, so he may not reply right away. :) (...) There will (most likely) not be a start/finish line that the robot will be able to see. (...) Normally, with Line (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.events)
 
  Re: Robo Waiter - a BrickFest PDX Robot competition
 
(...) David, I have a public question about the competition. Will the robot need to know when and where the starting line (and therefore stopping line) be located? Or will the robot simply need to carren he course following the line? What (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.events)
