wikipedia article explaining the sensors for the nxt robot

it says that it can take input from up to 4 sensors

I know we don't have 2 light sensors but it is nice to know one way of doing it

This tutorial is divided into two sections selected on the left. The "Essentials" are things every NXT programmer should know. Some of these movies have exercises directly under them. It's important to do these exercises, not just assume you "get it."

demonstration on maze bot

guide to building a plow

The bottom of this page explains how to create differnent gear ratios and how they work

they are using a diffrent program

we could make the program in labview, they were just using a piece of wood on books.

gives info on sound sensor

this is not very helpful. we already know about the sensors

Ya i agree we dont need to know about the sensors

gears and construction on how to get high speeds

This wouldn't work going up hill at 22.5 degress, and how would we get the nxt brick and the rest of the body to move that fast??

Appendix B Direct Commands Reference Using Vernier Sensors with the NXT

user guide for the nxt

shows how to build a simple wall following robot

Although this is an older version, the placement of the Ultra sonic sensor is a good thought

many sample codes for different reasons

they are good codes because we can use them to help the robot carry out specific functions. also they are much simpler than the long codes that we have to make so in the long run these codes will make it easier and it will save us time

another way to utilize the ultrasonic sensor

list of all sensors and what they do

it shows how you can make an nxt robot have a sweeping mechanism by adding a motor and a few gears

In this setup, a single light sensor is positioned on the robot and programmed to follow the outer-edge of a black line. We commonly refer to the robot executing a 'Z' pattern while following the black line.

a z pattern might not b the best idea on this because we have a certain time we have to do

if we keep it between a very specific max and minimum then it will not zig zag as much and will appear to go straight
