PneumaticEye:

Der Roboter ist ausgerüstet mit 5 Motoren, 2 mikromotorgesteuerte Pneumatikventile, 2 große Pneumatikzylinder, 1 kleiner Pneumatikzylinder, 4 kleine Pneumatikpumpen (4-fach Kompressor, motorgetrieben mit automatischer Druckreglung), 1 Pneumatiktank, 2 Rotationssensoren, 2 Berührungssensoren, Lego-Cam und als Spezialelemente: LED-Bricks und Output-Expander-Brick.

Mit dem Output-Expander-Brick ist es möglich, alle 5 Motoren und die Scheinwerfer (LED-Bricks) mit nur einem RCX anzusteuern.

Description:

Elements: Motors 5, pneumatic valves: 2; large pneumatic cylinders: 2; small pneumatic cylinders: 1; small pumps: 4; air tank:1; rotation sensors: 2; touch sensors: 2; Camera: 1 and a view of other bricks and elements
Special Equipment: LED-bricks, output expander brick.

The PneumaticEye is made of modern robot techniques. It is a toy, but a real high-tech-toy: with the help of the LEGO Vision Command camera you can see what’s going on, nearly everywhere. PneumaticEye can move into very tall places (for example tubes, subways, or all the corners with dangerous stuff) where men can’t or don’t want to intrude or explore even inaccessible environments. It can grip, take objects and bring them to you.

The robot got a few homebrew devices such as LED-bricks and an especial output expander. It’s able to control 5 full featured output ports . The fifth output port (B) switches from port A/C to A1/C1 and may be used for further things . The output expander is powered by a small relay, bistable, 4 x changeover. Power is needed only in the beginning to switch over. The expander is placed in a LEGO duplo brick. By using this port expander there’s no need to use a second RCX-brick.

The low-current white LED-bricks provide light to the robot. Further the red/green LED-bricks provide more light while the robot moves and direction is indicated by the two different colors.

The Pneumatic Valves are controlled by MindStorms rotation sensors and MindStorms touch sensors.

The robot is controlled by a visual basic program ore IR.

The construction is strongly compact: by the use of pneumatic elements you can save a second power motor. Due to the pneumatic elements one power motor can grip and lift objects, even keep them without using the motor any more. For this reason PneumaticEye is powerful, but also tall and light.
