F. TROUBLESHOOTING
If the motor does not run or move when it hits an obstacle:
• Check that you are using fresh batteries. Some rechargeable batteries may not be able
to produce enough electric current to keep the sphere turning when it hits an obstacle.
Remarks: It is recommended to use alkaline battery.
• Check that the battery is inserted the correct way round in the battery case.
• Remove the motor housing cover and check that all the connections between the wires
are OK. Also check that none of the connections between the wires are touching each
other, as this will cause a short circuit.
• Check that the cogs are sufficiently lubricated.
• Check if the two half spheres are screwed too tight and white spindle of the motor is
inserted into the square hole completely. This will add friction to the inner mechanism
when it is rotating.
If the motor keeps running when the switch is off:
• Remove the motor housing cover and check that none of the connections between the
wires is touching another.
Since the lubricating oil inside the motor may solidify after storing for a long period, it is
recommended that you remove the motor housing cover and rotate the worm gears several
turns by hand before playing with the robot. This ensures that the lubricating oil can be
spread evenly and the motor runs smoothly.
G. HOW IT WORKS
The gears slow the movement of motor, which makes the spindle turn more slowly than
the motor. The motor, battery and weight are all on one side of the spindle that turns the
sphere. This means that the centre of gravity of the motor assembly is off to one side.
With the motor switched off, the sphere always comes to rest with the centre of gravity
below the centre of the sphere, directly above where the sphere touches the ground. If you
roll the sphere to one side, it just rolls back again.
When you switch the motor on, the motor assembly turns inside the sphere. So centre of
gravity of the sphere moves to one side. This makes the sphere roll because it is unstable.
As the sphere rolls, the motor keeps turning the assembly, so the sphere keeps rolling.
The rubber ring grips the surface under the robot.
But how does the Robot Smart turn corners? The centre of gravity of the sphere is slightly
to one side of the rubber ring. This is why the sphere leans to one side. When the Smart
Robot hits an object, the sphere cannot move forwards. But because it leans to one side,
it turns to one side. It keeps turning until it can move forwards again.
H. FUN FACTS
• Smart Robot moves using a rotating sphere inside its case. Most mobile robots run on
wheels or tracks, and can go over rough ground.
• Bipedal robots are robots that walk on two legs, like humans. They need clever
mechanisms and computer technology to walk without falling over. Some bipedal robots
can even run and climb stairs.
I •
Robots that move around by themselves are called autonomous robots. They can't
normally see where they are going. Instead, they have touch sensors that detect when
!
g they bump into something.
• Some autonomous robots build up an electronic map of their surroundings by
remembering where they have bumped into things. Then they can move along without
bumping into things again.
• Automated guided vehicles (ATVs) are robots that work in factories, carrying things from
one place to another. They find their way by following lines drawn on the floor or
underground cables.
• Robot vacuum cleaners move around a room, sucking up dust as they go. When they
bump into an object, they turn round. Gradually they clean the whole room. Robot lawn
mowers cut grass in the same way.
• Each year robot soccer players play against each other in an international competition
called the RoboCup.
