  1. Insectelligence Review

  2. QUESTION Which of the following should you never do? • keep the robot away from liquids • be careful picking the robot up • charge the robot every night • run a program while the robot is on the desk

  3. ANSWER run a program while the robot is on the desk

  4. QUESTION The robot’s ‘brain’ is a microprocessor also known as the • CPU • PCU • UCP • URL

  5. ANSWER CPU

  6. QUESTION Sensors provide the robot with • autonomy • control over its environment • inputs • outputs

  7. ANSWER Inputs

  8. QUESTION The infrared sensor on the AS-MII robot…… • could detect any object at any distance • could detect small objects at a distance of 10 feet • could detect an object in front of it, but only for a short distance in front of the robot • could only detect very large objects

  9. ANSWER could detect an object in front of it, but only for a short distance in front of the robot

  10. QUESTION The bumper detect…. • can only sense a bump from the front or back • converts the bump into a sound that is stored in memory • makes a sound whenever it is activated • interprets a bump on any of the robot’s 4 bump switches as a specific numeric value

  11. ANSWER • could detect an object in front of it, but only for a short distance in front of the robot

  12. QUESTION Artificial Intelligence is defined as: • ability of a computer to perform those activities that are normally thought to require intelligence • the branch of computer science concerned with the development of machines having this ability • devices constructed to perform like a human or an animal considered intelligent • all of the above

  13. ANSWER • All of the above

  14. QUESTION The new trend in Artificial Intelligence is: • to program a computer to perform activities normally thought to require intelligence • the development of machines that behave like people • to model the way living things behave • to program computers that talk like people

  15. ANSWER To model the way living things behave

  16. QUESTION • This robot was made and operated at MIT. What is its name? • Casement • Kismet • Herbert • Steve

  17. ANSWER Kismet

  18. QUESTION Autonomous means • moves like a car • the opposite of a word • remote controlled • acts independently

  19. ANSWER • acts independently .

  20. QUESTION The collective behavior that emerges from a group of social insects has been dubbed “swarm intelligence”. Programmers are modeling swarm intelligence because… • The group can quickly adapt to a changing environment • The group will still perform its tasks even though some of the individuals fail • There is little need for supervision, as the individuals are self- organized • All of the above

  21. ANSWER • All of the above

  22. QUESTION Criteria for a robot computer program are: • the things that make it difficult for the program to succeed • the things that the robot has to be able to do • the questions you discuss when looking at the big picture • the outputs required by the program

  23. ANSWER • the things that the robot has to be able to do

  24. QUESTION • A flowchart is….. •  - a graphical representation of the sequence of operations for your robot to perform • - the path electricity follows through the sensors • - a chart that shows all inputs and outputs, as well as their functions • - a diagram of the links between the hardware

  25. ANSWER • a graphical representation of the sequence of operations for your robot to perform

  26. QUESTION Constraints for a robot computer program are: • the things that make it difficult for the program to succeed • the things that the robot has to be able to do • the questions you discuss when looking at the big picture • the outputs required by the program

  27. ANSWER the things that make it difficult for the program to succeed

  28. QUESTION Once you have read the criteria and constraints, how should you decide what actions your Insectelligence robot is going to take? • Choose two constraints and write an algorithm • Choose two sensors and write an algorithm • Choose two insect behaviors and write an algorithm • Choose two criteria and write an algorithm

  29. ANSWER Choose two insect behaviors and write an algorithm

  30. QUESTION The Design Process for your project is: • Program, Design, Test, Redesign • Test, Design, Program, Redesign • Design, Program, Test, Redesign • Design, Test, Program, Redesign

  31. ANSWER Design, Program, Test, Redesign

  32. QUESTION An output of a robot could be: - the program that runs it - from the sensors • movement forward • none of the above

  33. ANSWER movement forward

  34. QUESTION Your nose could be considered: • an output for sending smell • a sensor giving input of a scent • a bumper • a microprocessor

  35. ANSWER a sensor giving input of a scent

  36. QUESTION To prepare to download the program into your robot you must… • have the robot plugged into the computer and the robot turned on • press the Reset button on the robot • make sure that you have opened VJC1.5se • connect the robot to the computer then press the Reset button

  37. ANSWER have the robot plugged into the computer and the robot turned on

  38. QUESTION When testing the light sensor, you found that… • the value for dark is a very low number, and the value for light is a high number • the value for dark is a high number and the value for light is a low number • how bright or dark it was did not affect the sensor • the robot only reads the difference in value between the light sensors

  39. ANSWER the value for dark is a high number (255) and the value for light is a low number

  40. QUESTION You should save your program ____ you have downloaded it to the robot. • before • after

  41. ANSWER Before

  42. QUESTION Your criteria tell you that the program must run for 5 minutes. Which of the following should you include in the program? • A forever loop • A 5-minute loop • An If-Then statement • A time sensor

  43. ANSWER A forever loop

  44. QUESTION A flowchart is….. • the path electricity follows through the sensors • a chart that shows all inputs and outputs, as well as their functions • a diagram of the links between the hardware • a graphical representation of the sequence of operations for your robot to perform

  45. ANSWER a graphical representation of the sequence of operations for your robot to perform

  46. QUESTION In this programming block, the robot will move: • backwards at a speed of 80 • forwards at a speed of 80 • backwards at a speed of 500 • forwards at a speed of 500

  47. ANSWER backwards at a speed of 80

  48. QUESTION Increasing the time on the Move block will… • do nothing, you cannot change the time on the Move command only the speed. • have the robot move for a longer period of time • have the robot move faster • cause a program fault that will stop the robot

  49. ANSWER have the robot move for a longer period of time

  50. QUESTION This bumper detect block: • will respond when the left front side is touched • will respond when the left side is touched • will respond when the right side is touched • will not respond to any touch on the bumpers
