For the project each group were given a board, +that resembled a conveyor belt where cans are moved in front of the robot, when the robot is in idle position. Using the built-in proximity sensors the robot will then detect can size and plan a route for movement to sort the can. This is all demonstrated on the video below. + +## Programming +This project was programmed in standard C, although GitHub lists it as C++. This is because the Arduino IDE compiles C code, but C++ can also be used if desired. + +## Goal of the project +The goal of this project was for all students to get familiarized with a simple robot (The Zumo32U4) that moves in 2 dimensions (horizontally and vertically), while using sensors, encoders & much more. + +## Video demonstration + +( Click the image to watch the video ) +[![Demo Video](https://img.youtube.com/vi/YZVRyMfajOA/0.jpg)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZVRyMfajOA)
