Obstacle course
We created the Obstacle course on a Doing A Raspberry (our team name) and a DYI theme. We used all sorts of items that we found around our house, here is the video https://youtu.be/_G9JDnGe1sU

Introduction form Steve
I think it was back in February 2018 when James turned up at Leicester Hackspace along with his mother and sister with an interest in building a robot and learning some electronics and software. That summer he successfully applied for PIWARS 2019, now we just had to build a robot. Our first entry, team RATAE, was based on hardware that James already possessed, a PI0W, Pimoroni Explorer Hat and a PI Supply Controller. So James set-to designing the chassis and I said I would help with the software. We did not realise it at the start, but we were effectively building the Tiny 4WD robot. The first chassis was built out of Mecanno . Documentation on the PI Supply website led us to “Approximate Engineering’s Python Game Controller”. This is going to be simple I thought, as the software for controlling the robot was already done, I just had to interface to my Je-Vois camera, add some line following sensors and we would be started,famous last words. James would have no problems at home
