- Winning Recipe: Cook up the most eggs into the goal. Using photosensors, plan to locate eggs of certain colors and get them into our goal. Possibly implement defensive techniques against the other teams using a contraption involving a servo motor.
- Prize Ingredients:
-
A Delicious Search Pattern
-
Fresh Photo Sensors for Color
-
Sturdy Motor to Capture Ball

| Move Egg
| After egg is captured, use a rotation and light finding code to find the goal and then score the egg into the goal. Also, bring away eggs of wrong color. Otherwise, transport the egg towards the lighted goal. Done! -Hot and Delicious
