Localization Beacon
A 270° servo motor mounted IR phototransistor that can track beacon while moving. The microcontroller will record the angle of which the beacon is first detected, and record a second angle when the same beacon is no longer detected, and by taking the average of these two angles we can get the true angle of the beacon relative to our robot, then we can subsequently triangulate our position on the field. Also, the green LED indicator will turn on whenever a beacon signal is detected to show the beacon tracking operation.
