Pikachu MOBOT 2003

This was my very second robot, named Pikachu, that I entered into MOBOT 2003. The video starts off showing what it looks like, followed by a big Pikachu thing on top of it as it goes down the course.

Pikachu used a CMUcam and a Cerebellum (PIC16F877) microcontroller.

The reason it failed on the hills was mainly a result of having poor speed control. Plus, I sucked at making robots back in 2003 . . .
