9. Experiment: Foil Backing

This experiment can be useful if your pieces of white or black  paper are thin. 

          • place the white card on a sheet of tin foil, shiny side up.
          • place the robot on top of the card
          • run the Test & Calibration Code cell
          • record the average values reported in a table like the one below.

Repeat the exercise with black card.

How does using tin foil under the card affect the average values reported when compared with the values reported in the color experiment earlier?
