  2. Operation • Search for a target wearing a certain colored shirt (like bright red) while avoiding obstacles. • Center on the target once it is found. Move to proper distance from target. • Launch tennis ball at target (simulates a difficult shot in tennis). • Report successful launch by flashing an LED at a certain rate.

  3. Sensors • ACMUcam IP Cam to find a target and center on it. • Sonar to determine the distance to a target or an obstacle. • IR to determine if obstacles are close to the sides.
