SPARTAN Superway Week 9

This week, the majority of our prototype parts came in. I was able to use all of our new RFID tags to create a prototype controls code that reads the tags and navigates to a position on the track. Right now, the code only allows the user to input a destination via a corded connection, but in the coming weeks we will implement the Xbee module into our code to pick a destination via wireless communication. Currently, the code relies on functions to control the motors and servos, but I just made it say "print to serial". In the next week, I will code actual voltage commands to run the motors. The RFID tag layout can be seen below.
