 ROBOTICS

     WHAT IS ROBOTICS ?         

Robotics is the branch of mechanical engineeringelectrical engineering and computer science that deals with design, construction, and as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing.

These technologies deal with automated machines (robots for short) that can take the place of humans in dangerous environments or manufacturing processes, or resemble humans in appearance, behaviour, and or cognition.

​

    WHAT IS EV3 ?

Lego Mindstorms EV3 is the third generation robotics kit in Lego's Mindstorms line. It is the successor to the second generation Lego Mindstorms NXT 2.0 kit. The "EV" designation refers to the "evolution" of the Mindstorms product line. "3" refers to the fact that it is the third generation of computer modules - first was the RCX and the second is the NXT

VARIOUS TYPES OF  SENSORS AND MOTORS

                                  IN EV3

​

The digital EV3 Infrared Seeking Sensor detects proximity to the robot and reads signals emitted by the EV3 Infrared Beacon.It is also the EYE of the Robot.It makes the robot see.

The digital EV3 Color Sensor distinguishes between eight different colors.It can tell the difference between color or black and white, or between blue, green, yellow, red, white and brown.It also serves as a light sensor by detecting light intensities.

 COLOUR SENSOR

INFRARED SENSOR

  TOUCH SENSOR

The digital EV3 Color Sensor distinguishes between eight different colors.It can tell the difference between color or black and white, or between blue, green, yellow, red, white and brown.It also serves as a light sensor by detecting light intensities. 

The analog EV3 Touch Sensor is a simple but exceptionally precise tool that detects when its front button is pressed or released and is able to count single and multiple presses. 

  MEDIUM SERVO MOTOR

The EV3 Medium Servo Motor is great for lower-load, higher speed applications and when faster response times and a smaller profile are needed in the robot’s design. The motor has a built-in rotation sensor.

   LARGE SERVO MOTOR

The EV3 Large Servo Motor is a powerful motor.By using the built-in rotation sensor, the intelligent motor can be made to align with other motors on the robot so that it can drive in a straight line at the same speed. It can also be used to give an accurate reading for experiments.

INFRARED BEACON

This has been designed for use with the EV3 Infrared Sensor. The beacon emits an infrared signal which the sensor can track. The beacon can also be used as a remote control for the EV3 brick through signals sent to the infrared sensor.

  GYRO SENSOR

The digital EV3 Gyro Sensor measures the robot's rotational motion and changes in its orientation. We can measure angles and create balancing robots.

ULTRASONIC SENSOR

The digital EV3 Ultrasonic Sensor generates sound waves and reads their echoes to detect and measure distance from objects. It can also send single sound waves to work as sonar or listen for a sound wave that triggers the start of a program.

ADDITIONAL SENSORS

TEMPERATURE SENSOR

This dual-platform digital temperature sensor can be calibrated to measure both Celsius and Fahrenheit using either the LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Education NXT or LEGO MINDSTORMS Education EV3 platform.
