Introduction

This is the third challenge within the Robotics with GoPiGo and Python Curriculum.

Your task is to design a robot program that can navigate through the maze-like jungle without trampling over any plants or getting stuck in any dead ends.

Learn how to use the Distance Sensor and practice using the left-hand rule of maze-solving.

2. Considerations

How do you maintain a safe distance from the flora of the rainforest (the maze walls)? How do you detect clearings on either side of your path (openings on the left or right)? What strategy will you follow to explore the rainforest (maze) and find the exit?

At the bottom of the rainforest, the sun or the stars cannot be seen, therefore you can't depend on them for orientation.
