Sensor points

From Maslab 2007

Jump to: navigation, search

Each team gets ~30 sensor points (if you can come up with a very convincing reason, the staff may allow you to have a few additional points), to be spent on the following items, provided by Maslab:

Item Value
Extra motor 9 points
Servo 5 points
Ultrasound 4 points
IR 4 points
Solenoid 2 points
Photodiodes, etc. 1 point
Optical encoder pair 0 points
Whisker switch 0 points
Moment buttons 0 points
Original gyro and camera in your kit 0 points

Notes

  • teams may only use one camera
  • home-built optical encoders are also 0 pts/pair

Teams are allowed to spend at most $100 on additional active components not provided in the Maslab kit. Items obtained "for free" should be valued according to how much it would cost another team to get the same part (so if you happened to have a cool motor lying around, you should count it as its value).
