Projects :: Pop Can Pusher

Materials:

  • RCX
  • 1 (or 2) push sensors (both INPUT 1)
  • light sensor (INPUT 2)
  • 2 motors (we used 4) (OUTPUT A & B)
  • lights (we had an array of lights) (OUTPUT C)
  • Lego bricks to build with
  • The program (RoboLab)

Motors (four-wheel drive)
We used a four-wheel drive system, but it was probably ok just to use 2. What we did was hook up the left motors (A) and hook up the right motors (B). In the diagram, motor 4 is hooked up to motor 1 which is then hooked up to the RCX. Motor 3 is hooked up to motor 2 and then to the RCX.
