Karan says that ‘Robomaniacs' used an ultrasonic, light and touch sensor, and 3 motors to build the robot. The sensors and the motors were all fixed in their position, but one motor was left to change the attachments for the different tasks. "Our robot was stable but slow, we are definitely looking forward to the next edition of FLL and we will improve our design", adds Karan.
