I'm interested in adding a tabletop edge detection so that skoobot doesn't fall off the table that it's running around on. I'm asuming that's not built in?
I was initially thinking of IR leds around the base, not sure if that's the best way to go?

I could maybe try and figure it out and pick out some parts, these combo tx and rx might work. I have played with them before:
