my e-mail is [email protected] this is my turtle bot that is made of that wonderful yet failing lego! it goes forward and awoids obsticals at as basiclly as POSSIBLE. it will see an object less than 20 cm infrount then it will move back turn and then continue. instead of having a castor wheel i use a touch sensor. when the souch sensor isnt being touch it waits 2 seconds (so it knows its upside down) then flips itself over. lets have a look. (its not working so go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRe2C2Q1bpM) ...

this is my turtle bot that is made of that wonderful yet failing lego!

it goes forward and awoids obsticals at as basiclly as POSSIBLE.

it will see an object less than 20 cm infrount then it will move back turn and then continue.

instead of having a castor wheel i use a touch sensor.

when the souch sensor isnt being touch it waits 2 seconds (so it knows its upside down) then flips itself over.

=)

i hope i get those tracks!

hope you enjoy the updated robot.

ive just realised a really bad fact.

my robot doesnt qualify.

its meant to flip itself over. in the vid i flipped it over. it only flips itself back.

so if no one else enters i may have a shot at it? perhaps im still in it?


update #2

ok i ve reamped the robot to your requests frits and i hope you like it.

i also made it so odly shaped that it has only two ways that it can fall, upsidedown or on its feet.

in one of the videos the robot is unable to flip itself over but thats only cos its running on 2 rechargable AAs.

i gave it a little help that was in the third video.

dick smith rechargable bats are great!
