Remote Control: Paddles and Acceleration Sensor
Here is what you all have been waiting for! Two NXTs one controlling the other. Here is what you need:
• 2 NXTs
• 1 Computer
• 4 motors
There will be two types of Versions like one with paddles and one that uses a Acceleration Sensor from hitechnic. You need to build a tribot for both versions.
Tribot:
Click here to download the Lego Digital Designer File to build Tribot.
Paddles Program:
1. First, you need to build a Tribot that I have given.
2. Build the controller with the picture that I have or the Lego Digital Designer File.
3. Then, Download the two rbt files.
4. Open both of the files by click on them on the desktop or where you saved it.
5. Download Remote.rbt to the Controller NXT (DO NOT CLICK THE DOWNLAOD AND RUN)
6. Download Receiver.rbt to the vehicle robot. (DO NOT CLICK THE DOWNLAOD AND RUN)
7. (Skip this step if you know that bluetooth is on and discoverable) Go to the Bluetooth menu one the Tribot and make sure it is discoverable and Bluetooth is on.
8. (Skip this step if you have connected with your other NXT before) Use the NXT that is one the remote go to search and search for it click on you other NXT and click one connection one (number one) and click connect. Enter a passkey on both NXT’s (Make sure that they are the same.) Skip the next step.
9. Go to My Contacts click your other NXT then click on Connect.
10. Run the Remote Program on the NXT
11. Run the Receiver program on the Other NXT
12. Press the orange button where it is neutral (middle). You can see the same thing one the screen. (Or the place where the nxt came says witch is back and witch is forward.). Controls: To move forward you put both paddles forward. To move backwards you put both paddles backwards. To turn you put one forward. To turn the other way you just witch paddles. To do a 360 you put one forward and back or the other way around. To Stop you put them in the middle. Notes: You have do step 6, 8, 9, 10, and 11 every time that you want to use the robots.
