Fun Projects for your LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT! |
Car with Game Controller |
|
This car is controlled by a remote control that works similar to a video game controller. With your two thumbs, you can control the steering and power of the car. |
The steering part of the control (left thumb) uses
the light sensor in an interesting way to produce an "analog" type
control, where the farther you push back and forth with your thumb, the
more the car will steer.
The controller built in this project and the program
that goes with it can also be used to control other robots that you
design. See the Challenges at the end of the building instructions
for details. |
