In this project I wanted to construct a remote controlled robot which moves much like a real snake. The snake robot consists of four links and three joints, being the motor axels. Each link is equiped with a set of free rolling wheels. The serpentine motion of a real snake is only possible due to an...

Collect and display sound data from the NXT sound sensor in real time on the LCD display of the NXT. Also include the ability to pause the data collection by bumping a button to view a particular screen of data until another button is bumped.
In this activity, a group of students each build an RCX robot. Each RCX is assigned a number. It will then have to tag the other RCXs with the number by using mail. 5 tags and the RCX takes on that RCX’s number. The winner is the RCX that has given its number to the most other RCXs at the end...
In this activity, design and construct an RCX car and program it to travel in a straight line until it hits a wall. Once it hits the wall, program the car to reverse direction and continue until it hits another wall at which point it stops.
In this activity, design and construct an NXT house which utilizes sensors. For example, have the house greet oncoming cars by turning the house lights on.
Construct a rotation sensor with the highest degree of accuracy and repeatability.
