Line 7: Line 7:
 Pixy2 attempts to solve the more general problem of line-following by using its image (array) sensor. ​ When driving a car, your eyes take in lots of information about the road, the direction of the road (is there a sharp curve coming up?) and if there is an intersection ahead. ​ This information is important! ​ Similarly, each of Pixy2'​s camera frames takes in information about the line being followed, its direction, other lines, and any intersections that these lines may form.  Pixy2'​s algorithms take care of the rest.  Pixy2 can also read simple barcodes, which can inform your robot what it should do -- turn left, turn right, slow down, etc.  Pixy2 does all of this at 60 frames-per-second. Pixy2 attempts to solve the more general problem of line-following by using its image (array) sensor. ​ When driving a car, your eyes take in lots of information about the road, the direction of the road (is there a sharp curve coming up?) and if there is an intersection ahead. ​ This information is important! ​ Similarly, each of Pixy2'​s camera frames takes in information about the line being followed, its direction, other lines, and any intersections that these lines may form.  Pixy2'​s algorithms take care of the rest.  Pixy2 can also read simple barcodes, which can inform your robot what it should do -- turn left, turn right, slow down, etc.  Pixy2 does all of this at 60 frames-per-second.
