Project Information

Analog Tutebot Information:
• Chassis Assembly Instructions
• The Tutebot circuit which you will build is a slightly modified version of the circuit described in Appendix 3 (see Figure 2.13):
• Instead of bipolar transistors, you will use MOSFETs (which you studied in Experiment #9).
• See Tutebot Circuit Tips for a helpful detailed circuit schematic.
 
Additional Information:
• You may choose to endow your Tutebot with additional functionality.  See the additional handout "Adding Sensors to your Tutebot" for ideas.
• You must demonstrate a minimally functional Tutebot by the end of your final lab session in order to pass the course.
• The Tutebot must move forward in a fairly straight path.
• The Tutebot must back up and turn upon colliding with an object, and then proceed to move forward again.
• Upon completion of the project, students should disassemble their Tutebots and return their kits to the TA, in order to receive their deposit checks back.
