Robotics Worksheet: Sense, Think, Act

Robotics lesson 2: Sense, think, act · Set 305 · 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.

3. 3.🔢 To make a robot vacuum avoid a chair, which is the FIRST step? (a) the bumper is pressed (b) the motors turn it (c) it decides to turn (d) the controller reads it
4. 4.🔢 To make a robot vacuum avoid a chair, which is the LAST step? (a) the motors turn it (b) the bumper is pressed (c) it drives on (d) it decides to turn
5. 5.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) a sensor reads light (b) it plans the next move (c) a bumper is pressed (d) a sensor checks distance

15. 15.Which of these shows that the robot is thinking (deciding)? (a) a gyro feels a turn (b) it decides to turn (c) the wheels spin (d) an LED lights up
16. 16.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) an LED lights up (b) the arm lifts a box (c) a gyro feels a turn (d) the gripper closes

18. 18.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) it plans the next move (b) the wheels spin (c) it compares two numbers (d) the program picks a path
19. 19.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) a buzzer beeps (b) an LED lights up (c) the wheels spin (d) it decides to stop
20. 20.🧠 Which parts do the “act” job? (a) the camera (b) the motors (c) the sensors (d) the program
21. 21.Which of these shows that the robot is sensing? (a) it compares two numbers (b) it decides to stop (c) a gyro feels a turn (d) the wheels spin
22. 22.🧠 Sense, think or act: “the robot turns left”? (a) think (b) act (c) sense
23. 23.🧠 Sense, think or act: “the program picks a path”? (a) sense (b) think (c) act
24. 24.🧠 Which parts do the “sense” job? (a) the motors (b) the battery (c) the frame (d) the sensors
25. 25.🔢 To make a robot vacuum avoid a chair, which comes first: “the controller reads it” or “it decides to turn”? (a) the controller reads it (b) it decides to turn
26. 26.True or false: when a bumper is pressed, the robot is acting. (a) True (b) False
27. 27.True or false: when the gripper closes, the robot is thinking (deciding). (a) True (b) False
28. 28.🧠 Sense, think or act: “a mic hears a clap”? (a) sense (b) think (c) act
29. 29.🧠 Sense, think or act: “a camera spots a wall”? (a) think (b) sense (c) act
