Teleoperation SENSORSCITY

Teleoperation
SENSORSCITY
January 23, 2002

A car, a monorail, and a train are available for Teleoperation at the
LEGO SENSORS City in January 2002.
From the Red Rover Red Rover side you can operated the other monorail and gate.
The live view on http://legocamera.marshall.edu shows the end of the
CITY that can be programmed over the internet by RoboLab.
Through the Red Rover Red Rover software you can operate and see the the view from the opposite side.
At Martha Elementary, the after school LEGO group built new projects and
put them together to start setting up their own city.
Each Martha student teleoperated the LEGO CITY at Marshall University
by Red Rover or RoboLab program missions through SENSORSCITY.

Martha students can connect up to the LEGO City at Marshall University through the Red Rover software.
They have the earth site set up. Red Rover is much like remote operation to Mars in that there is a time delay.
For a mission to as remote as Mars could be a 20 minute delay.
From Martha to Marshall is only about 4 seconds.
SENSORSCITY teleoperation

Everyone sent a remote mission to SENSORSCITY or operated remotely through RED ROVER.

This vehicle operated autonomously.
It could be started and stopped by the green run button to do its program.

The train that is at Marshall for January was programmed and teleoperated from Martha.

Teacher, student, and principle helped.
It is hard to imagine the train could be programmed from Martha Elementary
and run at Marshall University but the moving train was watched live.

Getting down to some serious building

Lights go on when white card is put under light sensor

Teleoperating was done through out the building time and shown off to friends and relatives.

Back ground and layout of the roads and LEGO projects were tried out
to get ready to have a CITY at Martha for the last day of the LEGO workshop next week.
