Human Senses & Robot Sensors

Main Idea Students learn about robotic sensors. They understand that robot sensors are based on the functions of human sensory organs. They study how the sensors (touch and colour sensors) work by creating their own robots and programming them. They identify when and why we use robotic sensors in real life situations.
