The class was split up into 6 teams, each trying to build a robot. My team chose Gyro Boy. Gyro Boy is able to travel, stand on its own, turn, sense objects based on its visual component, and it also utilizes an ultrasonic sensor. Our team successfully built the robot, but unfortunately the battery was either not charged or malfunctioning when it came time to download the Gyro Boy program.
Main Parts:
Stand - holds Gyro Boy when it is unmoving
Ultrasonic Sensor - allows Gyro Boy to stop
when it senses an object in its path of motion
Gyro Sensor - allows Gyro Boy to sense left and right Color/Visual Sensor - allows Gyro Boy to stop and start based on visual/color cues
2 Medium motors - allow Gyro Boy to move
Programming 'Brick' - allows user to program Gyro Boy
