CHALLENGE #5: Amaze Me!
(30 Points)

Description

I want you to program your robot to run a maze. Your robot must figure out how to find its way around in a typical maze that I create for you. Figure out the best sensor system to use. You may need to experiment a bit to find out which techniques work the best for your bot.

Your machine only has to do this activity one time without stalling, running into the wall, or giving up!.

Specific Tips

  • Make sure you check/test your sensor systems and design ideas before running the maze.
  • Look in your notes/log and figure out the best way to turn and back up your robot so it can find a way through the maze.
  • Record your program in a Word/Power Point Document like I showed you so you can have a record of it.
  • If your robot runs out of memory, delete some audio files or one of your older programs to make room.
  • Check out Chapter 12 in your book on how to use the switch block for more than two decisions.
