Robotics Worksheet: Sense, Think, Act

Robotics lesson 2: Sense, think, act · Set 212 · 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.

1. 1.🧠 In which order does a robot work? (a) act → sense → think (b) think → act → sense (c) act → think → sense (d) sense → think → act

3. 3.🔢 To make a robot vacuum avoid a chair, what comes right after “the controller reads it”? (a) the bumper is pressed (b) the motors turn it (c) it drives on (d) it decides to turn
4. 4.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) an LED lights up (b) a bumper is pressed (c) a sensor checks distance (d) a mic hears a clap
5. 5.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) it compares two numbers (b) a sensor reads light (c) it decides to turn (d) the program picks a path
