SPEC.

• The autonomous robot is to move independently by
  recognizing signals emitted from the ball and
  goals as shown in the picture.
• A ball uses red LEDs, and SoccerRobo can
  recognize it with its visible light sensor.
• The goals use infrared ray LEDs, and SoccerRobo
  can differentiate the goals with its infrared ray
  sensors.
• The robot can recognize the home and opponent
  goal by sensing the difference of the timing of
  the emission from the trigger of infrared LED.
• - Emission timing
• Goal A / 1.2m sec. Goal B / 2.8m sec.

Details of Each Part-1 Hardware

• Electronic Circuit
• The electronic circuit boards installed in the
  product are mother board x 1pc, visible light
  sensor (for searching the ball) x 1pc, infrared
  sensor (for searching the goal) x 1pc, touch
  sensor x 2pcs
• For grading up the robot, there will be various
  units and sensors, such as motor rotation sensor,
  as optional materials.
• Main circuit board is designed to be expanded and
  responded to the users technical levels and
  experiences. The flash memory is used, so that
  the users can rewrite programs many times.
• One chip microcomputer is Microchip PIC, which is
  well known and easy to operate for individuals,
  educational and research institutions.
• LEDs and a buzzer for monitoring are mounted.The
  power supply for the electronic circuit is 9V,
  and for the motors, 4.5V(AA x 3pcs.)

Details of Each Part-3 Software

• Programming
• The main body of the autonomous SoccerRobo does
  not have input devises to program its movement.
  Instead, you will program the movement in a
  computer and transmit it to the robot to execute.
  
• RS-232C cable is used for connecting the serial
  port on the computer.
• In order to make the programming procedure simple
  and intuitive, the Tile Designer has been
  developed, which uses GUI (Graphical User
  Interface) to program the movements on the
  screen.
• For the Operation System, Windows (95, 98, me,
  2000, NT) are scheduled to be used.
• Software CD-ROM is included in the product.
  Upgrade version can be downloaded on the
  internet.

Tile Designer, You just place the tiles!
You will see that you are programming while you
are placing the tile. It is good for learning
that the robot is moved by the program you made.
