Question
Sensor systems for obstacle detection and avoidance in mobile robots.
• Produce a written report documenting: the choice of sensors, sensor evaluation, the developed processor/measurement system, and overall system performance.

Transcribed Image Text:Robot
platform
0-1000mm
range
135° sensor
view
Example
object
I
The task will involve investigation, selection and evaluation of suitable sensors and development of a
processor-based measurement and display system which could be used for obstacle detection/avoidance.
Your system must measure and display the sensor information and indicate:
if an object has been detected,
the location within the 135-degree field of view
the distance from the robot.

You are part of new automobile design team, and are responsible for designing the sensor data collection system. The specification of the data collection system is that is must be capable of receiving data with a resolution down to 0.1% of full scale (1 part in 1000) for any given sensor. For example, suppose the driver pushes the gas pedal, the motion of which is read by an electronic sensor such that the range of motion is defined from 0 (not pressed) to 1 (fully pressed). If you want 0.1 % accuracy, you need 1000 possible data values between 0 and 1. How many bits do you need to represent data to 0.1% accuracy?

- A nearsighted eye is corrected by placing a diverging lens in front of the eye. The lens will create a virtual image of a distant object at the far point (the farthest an object can be from the eye and still be in focus) of the myopic viewer where it will be clearly seen. In the traditional treatment of myopia, an object at infinity is focused to the far point of the eye. If an individual has a far point of 39.5 cm, prescribe the correct power of the lens that is needed. Assume that the distance from the eye to the lens is negligible.arrow_forwardYou are watching a live concert. You can also find the concert streaming live on Spotify.

- I need help solving this problem.arrow_forwardYou’re testing a system that involves a fan, water pump, and compressor. The components are turned ON in sequence and sensor readings are taken, as per a written protocol that you’re following. The system is running as expected after the fan and water pump are turned ON. However, when you turn ON the compressor, it runs for about thirty seconds then stops, consistently. Swapping out the compressor for a different one seems to solve the problem. What could have been the issue with the bad compressor?arrow_forwardQ1: Draw the orthographic Projections of given object. 20,26 20 R20 35 Q2: Draw the orthographic Projections of given object. 10 20 25 50 2/3 Q3: Draw the Full Sectional Front view and Top View of given object 100 40 70 2 HOLES -016 15 R50 12 110 15 100 650 10 15 worl lo noitseib te 15 50 06arrow_forward
- Suggest a sensor that could be used as part of the control system for a furnace to monitor the rate at which the heating oil flows along a pipe. The output from the measurement system is to be an electrical signal which can be used to adjust the speed of the oil pump.
