Iggy’s Blog - It’s only words, and words is all I have to take your heart away.

I haven’t posted in a while because I have been very busy with school. Today I decided to video tape my first robot I built in my robotics class. It’s my first time doing anything in robotics and formally learning a computing language, in this case it’s InteractiveC. Naturally what I’m doing is extremely basic.

In the video the robot is avoiding obsticles by using two infrared sensors and in case it hits something, there are two “bumpers” with switches that make the robot backup. After the bumpers are hit 5 times the 2 LEDs flash and then the robot continues.

Again very basic stuff, but it’s a lot of fun.
