Robotics Worksheet: Sense, Think, Act

Robotics lesson 2: Sense, think, act · Set 503 · 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 sensing? (a) it plans the next move (b) the gripper closes (c) the program picks a path (d) a camera spots a wall
3. 3.Which of these shows that the robot is thinking (deciding)? (a) a mic hears a clap (b) it counts the boxes (c) an LED lights up (d) a sensor reads light
4. 4.🔢 To make a robot vacuum avoid a chair, which is the FIRST step? (a) it drives on (b) the controller reads it (c) the motors turn it (d) the bumper is pressed
