| Summary: | Programmable Stimulus-Response Robot (PSRR) is an improved version of BEAM (Biology, Electronic, Aesthetics, Mechanics) robots. Typical BEAM robots have its predefined functions and programs, usually have limited responses to its environment. PSRR is an enhanced version of BEAM robots since it has a feature wherein an ordinary user can modify the robot's behavior given a certain stimulus.
PSRR follows four layers, which are detection of light, performing sleep mode, avoiding collision, and allowing user to modify its behavior.
In able to achieve the four layers, a micro-controller chip was used to control the robot's movement. It served as the brain of the whole system. Photocells and infrared sensors were used to provide inputs, allowing the micro-controller to determine the environment.
PSRR basically performs the first three layers. It has been programmed to execute its initial movement. The last layer is an optional procedures to modify the robot's behavior to its environment. |
