RCX-Omni

An omidirectional robot programmed using NQC.

  • The associated code may be found under the repository site.
  • It works around RCX limitations primarily using a lookup table for trig, as RCX 1.0 did not support trig or floats.

Design

To replicate the hardware setup, see the images Robot.jpg, Wheel.jpg, and Remote.jpg below. Details:

  • Three motor outputs on an equilateral triangle frame (see Robot.jpg).
  • Each motor output should have an omniwheel or Lego Omniwheel. My design for this wheel is shown in Wheel.jpg
  • Robot is controlled with a rotation sensor on Sensor 1, a “reset bearing” button on sensor 2, and a “go” button on sensor 3
  • Which output goes to which motor is undocumented…
