Robot Vacuum

An automatic mopping robot built with LEGO EV3. When its infrared sensor detects a wall, the robot turns.
An EV3 robot with an infrared sensor at the front and a mop at the back driving across a floor.
I built this mopping robot with LEGO EV3. The program makes the robot turn when the front infrared sensor detects a wall and move straight otherwise.
At first, the robot would sometimes keep turning in circles, so I added a routine that makes it reverse when the color sensor does not detect the wall as expected.
I mounted a mop on the back so that the robot could dry-mop the floor.
