here is the pseudo code for the figure 8 robot
goal: to make the robot go in a figure 8 formation, with its end being its starting point
1.Enter loop
2.move in a curve, going one way
3. once you circle back to the starting point, go the other way in a curve
4. once you circle back to the starting point, announce that you have reached the starting point
5. go back to the start of the loop.
I would mark this as a success. My robot can (barring the fact i cant tell it exactly how far to move to complete a circle at the angle its going at, and unavoidable technical problems) go in a figure 8 repeatedly, and indefinitely.
Since all the magic is in the software, there wont be any images of the robot itself, its just the normal EV3 robot. But i will show a video of it in action, as well as a screenshot of the code.
Here is a video of it in action:
Here is a picture of the code, with comments:
