Alex J and Samar H's BeetleBot in the City

Me and Samar Hejazi made a beetle bot for our Paper and Motors project. He uses switches, attached to his antennae, to reverse the directions of the motors that propel him forward. This creates 'object avoidance' behaviour.

We have built a mini-city that lights up for him to live in. In future, we would like to make some of these lights motion-actived by our beetle as he moves around, and we would like to have little LEDs on him as well.
