Again, another LEGO NXT Robot in action. This time it lights up firework for you. As long as you’re brainy enough, you can be a robot scientist to make the LEGO NXT Robot to automate your everyday tasks. As we’ve seen before, someone made it to auto flush toilet and now this time it’s used to light the firework and you just sit back relaxed watching the show.
This autonomous NXT robot will light multiple fireworks in a sequence – while the family sits back and watch the display!! The MINDSTORMS NXT is built with two light sensors, one for navigation and other to detect a lighted fuse and an Ultrasonic detector. The Ultrasonic detector alllows it to adjust its torch arm height to suit the height of the fireworks fuse wire. It uses three motors – two for motion and and the third for the torch arm elvator.
