Robot kit with LEGO system sensors

Dobroslav KOVÁČ

The aim of this paper is to design and program a model of intelligent robotic sensory system based on the LEGO kit.

The design is a useful laboratory model, whether industrial or logistic, to handle unattended objects and to further shift them into a production or transport process. Robot built with LEGO Mindstorms, designed to build automated robotic models. Management is provided by the NTX control unit, which can, if necessary, upload any proposed program. The robot is powered by three servomotors and monitors its surroundings through three types of sensors, such as color sensor, ultrasonic sensor, and pressure transducer.

Keywords: sensors, robot control unit, actuators, software
