Robotics Worksheet: Sense, Think, Act

Robotics lesson 2: Sense, think, act · Set 738 · 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) it decides to stop (c) it counts the boxes (d) a bumper is pressed
3. 3.True or false: when it compares two numbers, the robot is thinking (deciding). (a) False (b) True
4. 4.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) it counts the boxes (b) it plans the next move (c) the gripper closes (d) the program picks a path
