| Artie is a flexible platform that was used for researching
neural networks. Artie is a smaller version of the Edison
robot in every way but with every identifiable bug worked
out. Edison's brain was literally transplanted onto the Artie platform, which features a smaller servo drive system to save power and battery cost, an easy PC interface jack, a
control box with LCD and function switches and a servo arm
that can lift the entire sensor carriage up and down for
locating hard-to-see obstacles. Size - 10" x 10" x 8" at 3 pounds Body - red-painted plywood and balsa base with 2 stackable layers Electronics - 1 BASIC Stamp II microcontroller unit, 1 BASIC Stamp stretcher board 1 Scott Edwards Mini Serial Servo Controller, 3 Infrared Rangefinders, 3 photo-voltaic cadmium sulfide photo sensors, 1 2x20 character LCD, 2 9V batteries, 4 C batteries wired in parallel for drive motors, RJ11 programming port, and 6 sensor activation indicator lights. Control System - neural network For more pictures and more robots, visit the web site. Email: lfu@drexel.edu |
