Step 10: Make a Track
You can make track out of almost anything as long as it's a surface that doesn't fully absorb light. The sensors detect the walls by receiving IR signals re ected o a surface. At TCPL we use a combination of recycled cardboard and foam to make the track. There is no o cial measurement for each track piece. For straight pieces, I cut a length of material between 6 - 15 inches long and about 2.5 inches tall. I then cut a roughly 2.5x2.5 square and hot glue it to the back of the piece to make a stand. See the fourth picture for an example. Note: Note: If you would rather not use hot glue you can slightly bend straight pieces and they will stand up. You can see an example of this kind of track in the video. When it comes to curves I will bend the material into shape and that causes it to stand without needing anything glued to it. See the last two pictures for examples. The distance between the outer and inner walls should always be 15 inches or more. This is due to the sensor's max range of 30cm. If both sensors see a wall the robot will stop. Autonomous Robot Racer: Scratch Mode: Page 71 Once the track is set up I will place some painter's tape to mark the nish/starting line. You can nd the app TCPL uses to capture lap times here: Apple or Android. TCPL runs a very simple time attack event where participants and/or teams get 3 laps to set a personal best time. The participant and/or team with the fastest time wins for that week. TCPL will change the track layout weekly to keep things interesting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxfp70L4fLA Autonomous Robot Racer: Scratch Mode: Page 72 Autonomous Robot Racer: Scratch Mode: Page 73 Autonomous Robot Racer: Scratch Mode: Page 74 Autonomous Robot Racer: Scratch Mode: Page 75 Yüklə 3,38 Mb.
