Robotics Worksheet: Sense, Think, Act

Robotics lesson 2: Sense, think, act · Set 516 · 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.

19. 19.🧠 Sense, think or act: “an LED lights up”? (a) act (b) sense (c) think
20. 20.🧠 In which order does a robot work? (a) act → think → sense (b) act → sense → think (c) sense → think → act (d) think → act → sense
21. 21.🔢 To make a robot vacuum avoid a chair, what comes right after “the bumper is pressed”? (a) it drives on (b) the controller reads it (c) the motors turn it (d) it decides to turn
22. 22.🔢 To make a robot vacuum avoid a chair, which comes first: “the controller reads it” or “the motors turn it”? (a) the motors turn it (b) the controller reads it
23. 23.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) it compares two numbers (b) it decides to turn (c) a sensor checks distance (d) it plans the next move
24. 24.🧠 Which parts do the “sense” job? (a) the battery (b) the motors (c) the frame (d) the sensors
25. 25.🧠 Sense, think or act: “a mic hears a clap”? (a) act (b) sense (c) think
26. 26.True or false: when a mic hears a clap, the robot is thinking (deciding). (a) True (b) False
