Final+Robotics

1) Please write the RobotC code necessary to make your robot traverse a Figure-8.

2) Write the code necessary to have the robot read a sensor called LIGHT1 and display the reading on line 3 of the NXT display. If the sensor is reading below 50, then have the robot go backwards, otherwise have the robot move forward.

3) Write the code necessary to have the robot read the ultrasonic sensor into a variable "U". Then have the robot display the contents of U on the 5th line of the NXT display. Have the robot continually go forward until it gets within 17 cm of an object. The robot will then backup, turn right and continue the process above. Hint: this will require two loops, one nested in the other.

4) Describe how Robots are being used in medical, constructional, and military applications.

5) Predict how your life will be changed in the next 10 years with the inclusion of robots. Use what you have learned in this class to justify your answer. Example: the robotic systems in cars will assist you in driving by telling you when you are too close to and object or even possilbly allow you to put your car on auto-pilot.

Remember to turn in your power point if you have not already done so.
