4. IntelliBrain-Bot Demo Program
Function
Description
Do Nothing
The robot does not attempt to move. This allows you to test the sensors. You will find this is extremely useful for debugging sensor problems.
Play Tune
Plays Beethoven’s tune “Ode to Joy” using the buzzer.
Remote Control
Allows you to remotely control the robot using a Sony compatible infrared remote control. Use the channel up button to move the robot forward, the channel down button to move it backward, the volume up button to rotate right and the volume down button to rotate left. (Requires a Sony compatible infrared remote control. Most universal remote controls will work if programmed for a Sony television.)
Navigate Forward
Uses wheel encoder sensors and navigation classes (provided in the RoboJDE class library) to navigate the robot straight ahead 24 inches.

5. IntelliBrain-Bot Demo Program
Function
Description
Rotate 180
Uses wheel encoder sensors and navigation classes to rotate the robot in place 180 degrees.
Navigate Square
Uses wheel encoder sensors and navigation classes to navigate the robot around a 16 inch square.
Random Dance
Uses software generated random numbers to perform a dance made up of random steps.
Follow Line
Uses line sensors to enable your robot to follow a black line on a white surface.
Avoid Obstacles
Uses wheel encoder sensors, navigation classes, and infrared range sensors to navigate your robot 24 inches forward and back to where it started, avoiding obstacles along the way.
Follow Object
Uses the ultrasonic range sensor to maintain a distance of 6 inches from an object in front of your robot, creating a tractor beam effect.
