    software

    • core functions
      • drive(direction); - drive function with direction parameter
      • align(direction); - auto align or align to specific wall, given by the direction parameter
      • turn(direction); - auto turn or turn to specific direction, given by the direction parameter
      • rescue(); - eject a rescue kit

    software

    • interrupt - our interrupt is a very fast way to read sensor values
    • our overall fast operating robot gives us time advances other teams doesn't have
