Caryl, is great that you liked the project butiá (the XO robot)
If you want, you could upload the photos/videos to the facebook group of the
project
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=147042805312846
I leave a video of the robot in the eduJAM here:

Also, there is some pictures here:

Thanks for taking pictures!!
Regards
Andrés, from the Butiá team

[IAEP] The XOrobots in Montevideo

[Caryl Bigenho]

Hi All,


I have some photos and a short video that I took of the robot project they 
showed us in Montevideo.  The file size of the email with all of them attached 
is to large and many of your email servers are bouncing it back.  So I will 
send the files individually in separate files.  I hope they come through that 
way!
The project was done by a group of engineering students at one of the 
universities there.  Their website address shows in one of the photos. I've 
also included screenshots of the code they wrote to make it happen.  It is 
written in "Turtle Art" a version of Logo.  How's your Spanish?


Here is a guide to the attachments:


XOrobots1.avi: A movie showing two of the robots in action.  One starts around 
the oval, senses the other one waiting and stops. The other senses the first 
one and starts around the oval and goes until it reaches the first one. Then 
the process proceeds.  The robots are programmed to go only where the surface 
is black.  If they are put in one of the black floor tiles, they continue 
moving about within the square, but never leave it.


XOrobots2.jpg and XOrobot4.jpg: screenshots of the TurtleArt code written to 
make it work.


XOrobot3.jpg: A still shot of a single XOrobot going around the circle. Shows 
their website address.


XOrobot5.jpg: A shot of the wheeled platform with the XO removed.


Looks like fun doesn't it!
