' -----[ Title ]--------------------------------------------------------------
' Applied Robotics with the SumoBot - QtiPulseDecayTrick.bs2
' This program uses the Pulse-Decay trick to discern between black and white
' with QTI line sensors.
' Important: You must start with the QTIs seeing black.

Read_Line_Sensors:
IF qtiLeft < qtiThreshold THEN
IF qtiStateLeft = 0 THEN
Start with your SumoBot parked on the black part of your practice sumo ring.
Enter, save, and run QtiPulseDecayTrick.bs2.
Verify that the Debug Terminal shows that the QTIs report 1 if they are over the
black practice ring surface or 0 if they are over the white tawara line.
