Chassis Assembly Flip the top plate over. The screws will b e visible, and the standoffs will be underneath (and you shou ld have a hole in the lower right corner). Find this piece (the battery spacer), and hold it like this: You will mount this to what is the underside of the top plate (which is now face up since you flipped it over!) Stick the tw[...]

Wiring Connections Leftover Parts At this point, your robot is togeth er and you’re probab ly wonde ring about t hose extra parts. They are used for Level s 2 and 3 of the SRS Robot. Here’s a summary. The hardware bag should still contain four 1” standoffs and eight 1/4” machine screws. They are explained below. There will be five plastic c[...]

Sample Programs Sample Programs There are sample programs available from http://www.seattlerobotics.or g/ WorkshopRobot/Level1/ (or the Workshop CD’s “Samples” folder). There are versions for BASCOM (B ASIC) and C. The program files contain descriptive co mments to ex plain what the code is doing. The programming concepts are explaine d in th[...]

Sample Programs A good way t o get started with a new program is to make a copy of a folde r for an exi sting program , then renam e the new folder and its .bas or .c file. (For C programs, you will also need to edit the makefile to reflect the name change for the .c file. Look for the SRC= line. You may also change the PRG= line for consistency.) [...]

Sample Programs Challenges : o Make a bum per touch cause t he robot to bac k up, turn away from the obstacle , and t hen resume exploring. (The BumpNGo program shows one possible solution, including waiting for a bump at the beginning of the program bef ore starting.) o Teach the robot how to navi gate a (specific) obstacle course. o “Bounce” [...]

Sample Programs Program 8 Purpose : Lear n to use the Ti mer/Counte r for timi ng. This pro gram flashes a LE D at a specific rate while readi ng sensors. Program : Timer Extensions : o Change the flash rate. o Add more code to the loop, e.g. showing sens or values. Notice that the flashing still maintains its rate, with no changes necessary.
