  4. HIGH COUNTRY ROBOTICS NAME: DATE: PROJECT: TRY ME SUB-MENU OBJECTIVE: Learn the NXT sub-menus and test the various sensors 0a DESCRIPTION OF TASK: The TRY ME submenu lets you test your sensors and motors in a fun way: Connect the sensors and motors to the following standard ports: Input ports: Port 1: Touch Sensor Port 2: Sound Sensor Port 3: Light Sensor Port 4: Ultrasonic Sensor Output Ports: Port A: Motor used for extra function Port B: Motor used for movement (right wheel) Port C: Motor used for movement (left wheel) To get to the TRY ME submenu: Press orange button to turn on NXT power. Press gray left arrow once to get to TRY ME. Press orange button once. To Try the TOUCH SENSOR: Press gray right arrow once to get to Try-Touch. Press orange button to get to Run. Press orange button to Run program. Press touch sensor to get a fun reaction! Press the dark gray rectangular button twice to get back to the Try Me menu. Try the SOUND, LIGHT, and ULTRASONIC sensors with similar programs in the TRY ME submenu by using the gray arrows to scroll left and right. To Try-MOTOR, attach a third motor to Port A and rotate the orange wheel of the motor t get the reaction from the NXT. Note: Try COLOR won’t work without the COLOR Sensor, which is not included in this particular kit. ROBOT DESIGN / SPECIAL FEATURES: NONE MAP OF TASK: NONE PROGRAMMING FLOW CHART: NONE

  5. OBSERVATIONS AND QUESTIONS: What is the NXT programmed to do when you Run the Try-Touch program? What is the NXT programmed to do when you Run the Try-Sound program? What is the NXT programmed to do when you Run the Try-Light program? What is the NXT programmed to do when you Run the Try-Ultrasonic program?

  6. HIGH COUNTRY ROBOTICS NAME: DATE: PROJECT: VIEW SUB-MENU OBJECTIVE: Learn the NXT sub-menus, test the various sensors and learn how to get data using the NXT/sensors 0b DESCRIPTION OF TASK: The VIEW submenu lets you use the NXT to get data from the sensors: Connect the sensors and motors to the standard ports (see TRY-ME project), OR you can select the ports in each VIEW submenu. To get to the VIEW submenu: Press orange button to turn on NXT power. Press gray right arrow three times to get to VIEW. Press orange button once. To get SOUND SENSOR data: Press orange button to select dB (decibels: a measure of sound pressure) or right arrow and then orange button to get to dBA (adjusted decibels to adapted to the sensitivity of the human ear). Press orange button and use arrows to select the port to which the sound sensor is connected. Make noises and watch screen for readings of the sound volume. Sound pressure levels are extremely complicated, so the Sound Sensor readings on the NXT are displayed in percent (%). Press the dark gray rectangular button once to get back to the View menu. Try the other VIEW submenus of Reflected Light, Ambient Light, Touch, Ultrasonic (in inches or centimeters) by using the gray arrows to scroll left and right. VIEW MOTOR allows you to measure distance in number of rotation or degrees of rotations. Start the VIEW MOTOR program and move the wheels of the BASE BOT to see how many degrees of rotation are required to go a certain distance or make a specific turn. Note: The View COLOR and TEMPERATURE submenus won’t work without the corresponding sensors, which are not included in this particular kit. ROBOT DESIGN / SPECIAL FEATURES: NONE MAP OF TASK: NONE PROGRAMMING FLOW CHART: NONE

  7. OBSERVATIONS AND QUESTIONS: What is the difference between dB and dBA to the NXT? What sounds can you make that are measured by the dB reading but are ignored by the dBA setting? What does the ultrasonic sensor measure? What are the smallest and largest readings that it will measure? What is the difference between the NXT measuring reflected light and ambient light? Which one would be affected by shining a flashlight at the sensor? How could you use VIEW motor rotations to determine distance? When would you use VIEW motor degrees instead of motor rotations? 0b

HIGH COUNTRY ROBOTICS NAME: DATE: Move forward Turn left Move forward PROJECT: Curveball OBJECTIVE: - Program precise motion of the robot - Observe starting position sensitivity - Develop clear and careful explanations. M1a DESCRIPTION OF TASK: Place robot in a 12 inch square box (defined by tape on the floor). Program the robot to move around an obstacle to accurately stop in another 12 inch square box on the other side of the box. This task requires autonomous movement. The obstacle is made of several small cones, some books, or other similar object. The two boxes are 6 feet apart, with the widest point of the obstacle midway between the boxes. Accuracy of movement is of primary importance, speed of completing the task is a secondary goal.

  22. HIGH COUNTRY ROBOTICS NAME: DATE: PROJECT: Too Steep OBJECTIVE: - Learn about strategic placement of the touch sensor. - Learn the uses of the different settings for the touch sensor. T2a DESCRIPTION OF TASK: This project is more about design than programming. Your robot will drive up a ramp. When all of its wheels are on the ramp, the robot should stop – due to the touch sensor. ROBOT DESIGN / SPECIAL FEATURES: This project uses the base robot. The touch sensor is attached in such a way that when the robot drives up the ramp, the touch sensor is pressed. Perhaps a trailing extension allows this to happen easily. Adjusting the length of the attachment adjusts when it will first touch the ground. MAP OF TASK: PROGRAMMING FLOW CHART: Touch sensor pressed move stop

What are the advantages or disadvantages of making the attachment flexible? What setting did you use for the touch sensor? Why? Could you have used one of the other settings for the touch sensor? How would your robot design need to change (draw a diagram)? How could you design a robot that only stops for a ramp of a certain steepness (or steeper)? T2a

  24. HIGH COUNTRY ROBOTICS NAME: DATE: PROJECT: Wait for it … OBJECTIVE: - Initiate a program with a wait. - Differentiate “press”, “release” and “bump”. - Experiment with methods of turning. T1c DESCRIPTION OF TASK: This project is a race. There are two lines on the floor separated by six feet. Your robot will begin fully behind one line. Upon a word from an unbiased observer, two or more robots start their programs by using the touch sensor. After the touch sensor activation, the robots should wait 5 seconds, race to the far line, and then return past the original line. The winner is the first to fully cross the line on the return trip. ROBOT DESIGN / SPECIAL FEATURES: This project uses the base robot with addition of the touch sensor. MAP OF TASK: PROGRAMMING FLOW CHART: touch move Wait 5 sec Turn 180 degrees move Or return backwards ???

  25. OBSERVATIONS AND QUESTIONS: Does the robot move when you press the touch sensor? Is it quicker to “press”, “release”, or “bump” and does one tend to move the robot more or less than the others. Which different ways did you make your robot turn? Which method of turning provided the most accurate turn? Which method of turning was the quickest? Are there any tactics you used that may have helped your success? Explain and/or diagram. Why is the delay important or useful in this instance? What other robotic applications might benefit from a delay or pause such as this? T1c
