It is a simple machine made of two light sensors connected to two electric motors through relays. The Sensors and motors are cross-connected; the left sensor controls Set on a white surface the machine gropes until it encounters a darker edge,and then depending of the configuration of its body, ... _01 tropistic automaton.
