Weekly Report 2 (
This week I did a lot of research on sensors and different
robotic parts. For my IR I want to use the Sharp GP2D12. I also ran across a
speech recognition kit which I thought was very cool and will definitely use on
my robot. It’s called the SR-07 and can be bought assembled from imagesco.com
for $90. I also like the wireless camera from X10.com, which I think will go
well with my design. I have a good idea of what my robot will perform but I
still want to add an extra function to it. I will discuss this with the TAs. I
also received my board this week, but I’m still waiting on my programmer cable
to test it out. I will also be receiving my LCD soon.
