Robotics Worksheet: Sense, Think, Act

Robotics lesson 2: Sense, think, act · Set 113 · 40 questions

Robot tip (The robot loop): Sense = taking in information with sensors (touch, light, sound, distance, camera). Think = the controller running the program and deciding. Act = doing something: motors move, a gripper grips, a buzzer beeps, a light shines. Then the loop starts again.

2. 2.Which of these shows that the robot is thinking (deciding)? (a) it plans the next move (b) an LED lights up (c) a sensor checks distance (d) a bumper is pressed
3. 3.🧠 Sense, think or act: “it plans the next move”? (a) act (b) think (c) sense
4. 4.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) it counts the boxes (b) it plans the next move (c) the program picks a path (d) the wheels spin
5. 5.🧠 Which part of a robot does the “think” job? (a) the bumper (b) the controller (c) the frame (d) the wheels
6. 6.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) the robot turns left (b) a sensor checks distance (c) a buzzer beeps (d) the gripper closes
7. 7.Which of these shows that the robot is acting? (a) the program picks a path (b) a sensor checks distance (c) a buzzer beeps (d) a sensor reads light
