For this project, we took our previous prototype of the digital drawer and improved upon it. The basic concept stayed the same during development while some adjustments were made to the images and the mechanical construction of the robot. The robot still contains the […]
Chris and Kevin’s Digital Drawer
For our toy, we made a robot that would allow children to draw on a monitor by turning motors and pushing buttons. The robot consists of 3 large motors, 1 medium motor, 3 touch sensors, and a color sensor. All these are attached to the EV3 through a series of supporting Lego […]
Chris and Kevin’s Paddle Pong Deluxe
For this project we created an interactive video game on LabVIEW that was inspired by the classic Pong game. The basis of the game is that there are two thin paddles, one on the left of the screen and the other on the right side. These paddles have a fixed horizontal position and a variable vertical position, […]
Kevin, Chris, Handy, and Nick’s Gap Hopper
For this project we created a robot that could cross a 6 inch gap without any human help. This was done under a 45 minute time constraint, therefore there is room for improvement in the design that would increase the robots ability to cross gaps. The final in class […]
Chris and Kevin’s Houdini Bot 5000
For this project we created a robot that makes a coin disappear right before your eyes. The trick starts off with the robot moving forward and grabbing a clear cup with a tissue placed over it. The robot then moves this cup on top of the coin. It then releases the […]
Chris and Kevin’s Astronaut Wire Twister
For this project we created a tool that would be able to route a wire through several black cables then secure the wire by twisting the cables. This was done using a combination of the EV3 brick, a medium motor, a large motor, two touch sensors, and an assortment of other lego pieces. The tool […]
Kevin Naranjo
Hey guys, my names Kevin N. and I’m from Miami, Florida. I’m interested in majoring in computer science. Looking forward to programming and constructing robots out of the lego kit. I’m pretty laid back when it comes to most things. Got to say Game of Thrones and The Office are amazing shows. A fun fact is that I’ve never […]
Chris and Kevin’s Ultrasonic Sensor Tests
For this project we decided to investigate some of the sensory properties of the ultrasonic sensor. We went ahead and tested some of the various limits of the sensor. These include: Maximum detection range (Two different sized papers) Minimum detection range Detection of different materials (Glass pane, window screen, cloth, and tissue paper) Detection of angled surfaces […]
