3. Objectives Construction of sensor array  10 distance sensors to perceive surroundings  gyroscope module to calculate angle Mapping  memorize objects depending on position depending on angle  graphical representation of map and situation Assistance to other components  provide angle to camera and path calculator  avoid bumping into objects

4. Design Construction of tower RS232 -> I2C interface Master: Linux Debian PC Ten SRF-02 modules  sonar based  decagonal array  areas slightly overlap  sense distance 6m  minimum 15cm CMPS-03  gyroscopic compass  on-board processing
