Sumobot hack

Well, living in the desert southwest, I started building a prototype for a solar collector for my pool.

I took apart my robot that has a basic stamp from

on it.

It has two motor controls which make is ideal since the solar collector only needs two degrees of freedom.

The sensors that were on the board didn't quite make the 'grade' for tracking the sun.

I don't have a solution.
