GoPiGo Football Player

GoPiGo Football Player

GoPiGo as fast as Ronaldo and as good as Messi.

Juan Pablo and Seb

GoPiGo that is able to go around colored cardboard cutouts using a color sensor. It is then able to use a servo with a cardboard paddle attached to it to hit a ball into a goal. It goes round in circles with flashing lights when it scores a goal in celebration. It will one day be better than the best football players, we hope.
