Course Outline
There are 6 major robot projects in this unit:-
1. The Follow the Guidelines Activity guides students step-by-step through the process of programming the robot, and running the basic line following program.
2. The Faster Line Tracking Exploration involves students in a study of the factors involved in line tracking, and explains how to modify their robot to line track more efficiently.
3. The Obstacle Detection Activity guides students step-by-step through the process of programming the robot to respond to two different types of sensory stimuli.
4. The Field of View Investigation has students further explore the detection abilities of the Ultrasonic Sensor but laying out a field of view plot and then scaling it to fit on a sheet of paper.
5. The Get in Gear Activity, which guides students step-by-step through the process of changing the robot’s gears, running the basic moving-forward program, and observing the differences created by the different gear ratios.
6. The Hello! My Name Is Activity, involves students building interaction capabilities in their robot. It will have to interact with a human or human operator in order to perform their task. To make it easier and more pleasant for the human to understand what the robot needs, robot designers give their robots personalities using sounds and display options. Here, students will do the same with their Personal Assistant robots.
7. Research Report – For this assignment, students will reflect on their project, define key terms, and discuss and important discoveries. This activity is a good choice for classrooms that have the goals of understanding the engineering process and developing professional writing skills.
