Key Features (Software & Logic)
• PID Control ; Uses proportional and derivative logic for ultra-smooth tracking without "wobbling."
• Processes "greyscale" sensor data (not just black/white) for accurate center-of-line positioning.
• Smart Junction Handling: Automatically detects T and Y junctions and navigates using the "Left-Hand Rule" to solve mazes.
• Dynamic Speed: Auto-accelerates on straight lines and brakes before corners.
• Active Braking System: Reverses motors momentarily to pivot sharply on 90° turns without overshooting.
• Memory Lock: Remembers the last known line position to recover if the track is momentarily lost.
