| Robo Jr. Light |

Robo
Jr. Light is a basic light tracer. It follows a light
source such as a flashlight. It has two photo sensors,
one on the front right corner and another on the front
left corner. It is powered by two motors.
How
does Robo Jr. Light work?
Robo Jr. Light has two CdS(Cadmium Sulfide) photo sensors.
Light is received by these sensors where it is converted
into an electronic signal. This signal travels to a logic
IC (Integrated Circuit). The logic IC generates control
signals for the two motors. When the both sensors detect
light, the robot goes straight. When the left or right
sensors detect light, the robot turns towards the source
and continues on. |
