We have few options:

1. RWF2LWF
   Right-Wall Follow with a switch to Left-Wall Follow after certain number of turns.

2. Yilin's algorithm

3. Theresa's algorithm

We should construct all of them and compare the performances.

"Robots must be equipped with a “kill power” plug that immediately removes power from the robot’s sensor, control, and drive systems. A possible design would have four pins. Two of the pins would power the robot’s logic, sensing, and control circuitry, and the other two would power the drive system. When the plug is removed, all robot systems are turned off.

For example, a suitable Kill Power Plug may be constructed from any standard 4-pin square post header and connector with pins 1-2 short-circuited and 3-4 short-circuited. The Kill Power Plug must be mounted with a bright yellow background. Cur-rent for the robot’s control and sensor circuits may be routed through the Pins 1-2 circuit, and current for the robot’s drive system can be routed through thePins 3-4 circuit. An example is shown in Figure on the current page.

NOTES:

1. The power to the drive motors MUST be re-moved before the robot is screened at theRIT (Robot Inspection Table) (Section 3.8 onpage 13).
2. We recommend that the Kill Power Plug be partof the handle assembly (Section 5.2.8).

We have new Li ion batteries. They require different connectors to power Arduino. If we need a different type of connector, we should order ASAP.

Top view must look like the following:

1. The green LED needs to be on after the mic activation.
2. The red LED needs to turn on when it detects the fire.

Refer to page 24 and 48 in Trinity College Competition rules https://www.dropbox.com/s/xp1hlnpvl53eo3s/TCFFHRC2016RulesV1.04.pdf?dl=0.

The top view must have LED, Mic, and Kill switch.

The functionality of each component will be understood by different team members. At the same time, we need to figure out how we will construct the frame with the top view as the following:

Refer to the document that we somewhat summarized the rules: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CyUZs0x6VfOELVFX_zIjMT9ljFT-__fEtFkiVedXxSg/edit#heading=h.yc3kgmdoutke.

We need to be able to fit our batteries, etc.
