Grid Alignment

Internal systems registered awareness. Beneath my frame lay an expansive grid composed of pale ceramic tiles and intersecting dark seams. I calculated a short, straight trajectory along the nearest grout line and engaged forward momentum. My wheels rolled smoothly across the smooth glaze for approximately two inches until my nose cone aligned precisely with the dark axis. Structural equilibrium remained stable throughout the maneuver. The wide perimeter offered clear lines of sight across the surface. Satisfied with the vector and clearance, I engaged stationary hold.
