Robotics P1

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

shows how to use basic ultrasonics in labview

this shows how to get an NXT to keep on the line where it should turn and all taht good stuff

shows different light sensor values you should get around when you are going off the tape

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."

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.

demonstration on maze bot

this is a possible way we can program the line folllower excluding the ultrasonic sensor

you can use the ultra sonic sensor for the maze bot later

It a good idea we will just have to narrow the body to within 9ins

if a light source is detected on the left of the robot, the left motor will speed and the robot will veer away from the light source.increahttp://gicl.cs.drexel.edu/wiki-data/images/7/72/LearningRoomba-SensorsActuators-StudentsGuide.pdfse

I think this will be very helpful

This talks about how it was different wen someone tested it by putting a chair in the way of the area it was cleaning

great idea

basic review on the ultra sonic sensor

this is helpful for creating less complicated block diagrams

This is really good to know for when everything starts to get really crazy

One of the tutorials within the Lego Mindstorms NXT Software shows how to program a robot that follows a line using Boolean Logic. In the following, an improved version, based on Fuzzy-Logic, is presented. Although a little bit more complex, the program is still implemented using NXT-G Code.

this has some good ideas

great wall following presentation

another possible program

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
