robot algorithm

robot algorithm

1. prescribed criteria

   • Follow a safe path to the exit.
     • Robot will follow the black line to the exit,
     • Robot will move back a forth on the line
     • Robot will use colour sensor.
   • Use sensor to identify any dangers or obstacles.
     • The robot will use distance sensor to detect and identify possible dangers and obstacles.
     • Robot will touch sensor to detect and identify possible dangers and obstacles.
     • Set distance sensor to 5 cm to move around obstacles.
   • Use sensor(s) to avoid or manoeuvre any dangers or obstacles.
     • The robot will use the distance sensor to detect obstacles
     • The robot will use the distance sensor to monoverse around them
     • The robot will set speed to 100% to get passed obstacles at a faster rate.
   • Complete a room-specific challenge.
     • Poison ivy challenge was chosen
     • Robot will manoevuvre around poison ivy
     • Will check rules

2. self determined criteria

   • Use speaker in robot to play noise after exiting the course
   • Play cat meow sound 5 times
   • Play another sound after cat sounds

3. spike prime robot

   • distance sensor
     • i have used the distance sensor of the robot to help it sense for danger/obstacles
   • colour sensor
     • i have used the robots colour sensor to follow the black line in order to get the robot safely through the course. the colour sensor can also detect reflection
   • touch sensor
     • the touch sensor works as when the acceptables amount of force is applied it will sense it.

4. coding constructs

   • movement blocks
   • motors blocks
   • light blocks
   • sound blocks
   • event blocks
   • control blocks
   • sensor blocks
   • operator blocks
   • variables block

5. algorithms and pudocode constructs

   • IF statement
   • WHILE loop
   • THEN
   • START AND END
