Robot Research Questions

Here are the questions that should have come home with the kids on Monday for their robot research (links on the Helpful - Robot tab).

Turns -- Name the three types of turns, and provide a statement about when each turn is the most effective.

Attachments -- Chose three of the attachments listed on the blog.  Learn about how they work, and develop a real life application for these attachments (can you think of how they would be helpful to someone’s daily life?) 

Chassis -- A Chassis is the base of the robot.  Look at the PDF (page 26-30) and determine the two different types, and list the pro’s and cons of each.  Which Lego pieces are typically needed to build a chassis? 

Light Sensors -- What two types of light can a light sensor detect? Which type of light will we most likely be using in FFL?  On a Calibrated Scale what reading would you expect the color black to give?  White?
