Robotics Worksheet: Sense, Think, Act

Robotics lesson 2: Sense, think, act · Set 853 · 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.🧠 Which parts do the “act” job? (a) the camera (b) the program (c) the motors (d) the sensors
2. 2.🔢 To make a robot vacuum avoid a chair, which is the FIRST step? (a) the controller reads it (b) the bumper is pressed (c) it decides to turn (d) the motors turn it
