InO-Bot Features and Sensors
Features
Lift/Lower Pen Holder: Insert a marker into the Pen Holder and program it to be in the up or down position within a program. This feature is useful for drawing geometric shapes, patterns and pictures.
Headlights: The InO-Bot has 2 front lights that can be programmed to turn On or Off, including these actions based on sensor inputs.
LED Lights: InO-Bot has 8 LED lights, all of which can be programmed individually or together. LED lights can be programmed to display a specific color and for a specified duration of time.
Motors: The Motors operate the wheels on the right and left sides. Motors can be programmed to run together or separately. The motors can also be programmed to react based on sensor inputs.
Sensors
Light Sensor: The Light Sensor located in front of the Pen Holder measures the amount of ambient light. Programs can be written that have the robot react based on an input of a designated light threshold. The Light Sensor value range is 0–1.0, with 1.0 being the brightest.
Sound Sensor: The Sound Sensor is located behind the Pen Holder and measures the level of sound. Programs can be written that have the robot react based on an input of a specified sound level. The Sound Sensor value range is 0–255.
Distance Sensor: The Distance Sensor measures how far ahead an object is, up to 255 centimeters.
Proximity Sensors: There are 4 Proximity Sensors: Right Front, Right Left, Back Front, and Back Left. The Proximity Sensors report a true or false state.
