Hi people,
Newbie here, I build prototypes for professors here at Vassar College. The Robotics division works with "predators" and "Preys" - basically preprogrammed wheeled robots where one tries to capture the other. The current request is for the Predator to be able to locate direction and distance of the prey ( never much more than 100ft) It's Ok to outfit the prey with a signaling device, but the real trick is for the predator to intercept this and calculate positon and distance.
Tried Infra red, but too much interference, laser is only straight line of sight. Any ideas??
