It’s named after a turtle on the Galapagos Islands. Lonesome George drives (not walks) forwards and backwards (but it doesn’t turn). Its shell is made of cardboard but it’s still entirely LEGO because the box is made by LEGO! When it sees something it will go into its shell and pull the ultrasonic sensor down.

Lonesome George

I will post a program and LDD file soon.
