Creating a Robot to Make Toast with Lego Mindstorm

Toast-O-Bot Summary: Robots that make toasts using toast, paint with spray butter and let the CD player play "Yeah Toast" songs are useful and fun. Such programs are possible by programming them with Lego Mindstorms and MAC NQC. As a starting point, I made a robot and modified the toaster, using the design and procedures Roboarm proposed in an authoritative guide to Lego Mindstorm. While testing the motor, I found that the Toast-O-Bot was not strong enough to push the button of the toaster.

The first LEGO Mindstorms kit (1998) consists of 717 pieces including LEGO bricks, motors, gears, various sensors, RCX bricks, and has an embedded microprocessor for assembling robots with the same components. . This kit allows you to teach the principle of robotics engineering. Creative projects that have emerged over the years have shown the possibility of interchangeable hardware in robotics engineering. In just a few years, the LEGO Mindstorms suite has become the most successful project including robot component compatibility.

I really like my first robot kit - the Lego brainstorming kit. This is a robot kit made with Legos. I used this kit with Mary during my high school days. This course is called mathematics, but in reality it is only programming with the Lego Mindstorms toolkit. I think that we are in the second year. Somewhere at that time, I tried to figure out what I wanted to do. I was always a mathematician, and I really participated in Newell's calculus class. However, I am hesitant to computer science. Because these people are a little fun for our class girls. I am worried that this is true of university.

We work with Lego Mindstorm, a suite of Lego that allows sensors, motors, and microcontrollers to control them. As a camera we used Kinect and processing was done on Raspberry Pi 3 and MacBook. Assembling an actual robot is more difficult than we expected. We designed a simple differential driven robot, but we made it with Legolenga trying to balance and balance weight, but it was also stable enough to support the Kinect camera.

Lego mindstorm advances through future external applications including human coverage. The free application (MINDroid) turns these Android smartphones into wireless remote control, and controls these Lego Mindstorm robots. The existence of this application was successfully tested with the LEGO brainstorming robot. This app connects to the NXT robot via standard Bluetooth connection. The smartphone sends direction control to the brain of the robot via an accelerometer. The magnificence of the app is how it controls the robot by tilting the phone. This motion stimulates the motor of the robot and moves it left, right, back and forth. However, there are enhanced features from the software that allow you to perform other motor-based activities such as removing objects from the robot and closing the hands of the gripper. This smartphone software will be a remote control smart device for this project.
