Summary of Talk Sensors used in robot Sensor Communication Software method of use for sensors Sensor Test Results

Sensors Used Photo diodes  Sight nearby objects or black and white transitions Peak effectiveness at 20-30mils Wheel Encoders  Read wheel rotations to determine travel distance  100 counts per turn, 2 channels

Sensors Used 3-axis Accelerometer  Measures acceleration in three dimensions  Configurable sensitivity Will read from +/-1.5g and ~600mV/g Sonar  Detects from 6in to 254in (6.45 meters)‏  1in Resolution, 10mV/in Compass  0.5deg Resolution, 2.5deg Accuracy  Can be used in strong magnetic field environments

Sensor Communication Analog  Accelerometers (x3)‏  Sonar (x4)‏ Optional use of Pulse Width or Serial  Both operate in 0 – 3V Range I2C  Compass Module 100kbps, 8bit address, data, and stop bit On demand, pre-averaged data

Sensor Communication Pulse  Motor Encoders to estimate speed  Available sonar alternative to analog

Method of Use Accelerometers provide incline data for map Directional data provided by compass  Errors checked by Z-axis accelerometer Distance determined by motor encoders and checked by sonar  Verifiable with accelerometer

Sensor Test Results Sonar effective as low as 1 foot and as far as the ceiling  Inconsistent if too close to surface (ex. ground)‏

Accelerometer Tilt Readings
