We went back to work with the IR sensor and LED, but with a few adjustments. We added another IR sensor and LED to the robot; the first sensor to the left and the newly added sensor to the right. Since this is similar to the other time we worked with the IR sensor and LED the first time, we copied the code from our previously-written programs DetectTurnMove and SerialYunMove, and added some new code. With our new program, TwoIR_6_29_2015, the robot was able to move and avoid objects on its own.

LED and IR sensor wiring diagrams
We used these figures from pages 238-239 in the book "Robotics with the Boe-Bot" as reference for wiring the LEDs and IR sensors


Goal
  • Make the robot move autonomously by adding to it a second set of sensor and LED
Program written
  • TwoIR_6_29_2015

Winter Internship 2019

Winter Internship 2019 January 02, 2019 In January 2,   since I already have a robot to work on, this internship I am planning to use this opportunity to maintain the robot by comparing the speeds and the load in the robot to make it more stable. January 07, 2019 During the summer internship, I had to make several changes to the robot and it was really hard to switch the idea between one technique and another. So this time I decided to learn 3D designing and build the 3D design of the robot. It will help me to manipulate the robot by using different function. January 08, 2019 On Wednesday, I spent the whole day learning 3D designing. January 10, 2019

VEX Robotics Competition: Transformer Prototype

VEX Robotics Competition : Transformer Prototype    I ntro The creative variability design of  robots dealing with   environments that  need  some unique mobility   presents challenges that can be tackled by the application of transformation principles for innovative design that opens  a larger  menu  of things that the robot   can do.    G oals O ur  research goals  for  participating in the VEX competition  are  not limited to  tackl ing  the main  objective  tasks, but to  invest  in higher score  opportunities  that call for   creative designs . An additional 6 bonus points are awarded for the team tha t secures the   center parking platform  a t   the  end of the  competition . The  center parking   platform  can be used by robots from either allianc e, it centers the two a llia...
