This circuit is used to create a simple "edgebot" sumo robot. Being an edgebot refers that it will repeat the same backup/turn/go forward action when it's single edge sensor detects the edge of the ring. This version of the circuit is quite simple, and always turns the same way.
Ardweeny!

Here's the Ardweeny - the smallest breadboard-friendly Arduino-compatible kit! Sorry it took almost a month to get this ready. The GVS-Shield took priority, and it is the holiday season. Kinda crazy here.
The Ardweeny has proven to be quite handy in the shop where we've got several projects on the go. Plug in a 'weeny to the breadboard, prototype up, and get'er done. For $10, it's a fabulously handy Arduino-compatible!
