This is probably the best for speed and power(torque). The robot would be front wheel drive based on that if the nxt is on the back with the wheels the robot would flip or slide down due to the weight on the downhill side of the robot not the uphill side(assuming the track is at 22.5 degress
Use front panel datalogging to record data for use in other VIs and in reports. For example, you can log data from a graph and use that data in another graph in a separate VI. Each time a VI runs, front panel datalogging saves the front panel data to a separate datalog file, which is in the format of delimited text.
sounds like for your application you might want to use the Log Angle (red/blue/green) nodes to acquire your data. This lets
you sample at a specific rate for a given amount of time and saves the data to
a file called RedData.dat, BlueData.dat or GreenData.dat depending on the color
of the Log Angle you chose

LabVIEW 2009 LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Module Help Logs Data from the specified sensor connected to the specified port. The data logging parameters are sample time and total time.For the Red Vis, the data is stored in the RedData.dat file on the NXT brick and can be viewed using the Data Viewer application.
im very sure that you can use more than one sensor but ill see if i an find something on it now
The Touch Sensor reacts to touch and release, enabling your LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT robotic creation to "feel" like never before! It can detect single or multiple button presses, and reports back to the NXT Intelligent Brick
equipped with four infrared Cliff Sensors that prevent robots from falling off stairs or ledges. The Cliff Sensors are located along the inside of the bumper
. If the Sensors become obstructed by dust or debris, the infrared signal is weakened
it helps show how the robot will travel until it reaches a wall to clean. Then from there it continues to travel along the wall until it is clean. Also, it helps show the perimeter of the room.
it seems that the robot is using a sensor on top of itself. this can be helpful because it can detect cilffs faster but it will detect them too soon and turn away. therefore, it won't clean everything. in my opinion we should place the sesors in front and not on the top
