2. Background Information Pat Teehan developed the MARV platform to be used by future Electromechanical students for their miniprojects. MARV is includes a HC12 microcontroller, a Scorpion XL motorcontroller and two Denso DC gear motors. The frame is constructed of 8020 extruded aluminum which allows easily assembly and alteration.

3. Problem Statement MARV2 is in an empty room. When MARV2 senses its battery is low, it needs to autonomously recharge its battery.

4. Solution Statement Use mechanical switch to simulate voltage low condition Sends MARV into search routine, where it aims to detect a light source Motors controlled by output voltages of sensors mounted on front and rear
