My First Robot Project: A Puppy!

I have programed my robot so that when it senses something close to it, it will stop, move back a little bit. Then it will come back and stop for a little bit, so that it looks like it is sniffing something, and then bark. Then it will continue to search until it senses another thing and repeat the program over again.

Here is a link to a video of my robot:

This is the program I used for my robot:


	Code: #pragma config(Sensor, S1, sonarSensor, sensorSONAR) //!!Code automatically generated by 'ROBOTC' configuration wizard !!// task bark(); task main() { while(true) { while(SensorValue(sonarSensor) > 49) { motor[motorC] = 100; motor[motorB] = 100; } motor[motorC] = 0; motor[motorB] = 0; wait1Msec(600); motor[motorC] = -100; motor[motorB] = -100; wait1Msec(600); motor[motorC] = 100; motor[motorB] = 100; wait1Msec(600); StartTask(bark); motor[motorC] = 0; motor[motorB] = 0; wait1Msec(1000); motor[motorC] = 100; motor[motorB] = -100; wait1Msec(500); } } task bark() { nVolume = 4; PlaySoundFile("dogbark.rso"); }

I had trouble with the sound of the bark, and even when I turned it up to the loudest it could be, it was still hard to hear. However, in the end, I figured that it was hard to hear because of the motors. If anyone has suggestions, please respond!

Thanks!
