The robots physical design is broken into blocks with each block having its special function. Functionality of each block can therefore be easily tested and debugged.
Infrared remote control receivers are used in conjunction with astable multivibrators, having the capability of detecting the presence of a wall in the range of 1 inch and 6 inches.
The digital processor uses Visual Basic like language and hardware virtual objects. Programs can be easily downloaded through a PCs printer port.
Diagnosis and debugging are made easier by having the status blocks, which utilizes LEDs to display the status of each block of the robot. Errors are detected instantaneously.
LandMark Navigation specifies the robots path by using landmarks in the maze such as the presence or absence of walls, produces an optimal route, and allows customization.
