Further Investigation
The servo, and using sensors to control servos, can be investigated in detail in a variety of
Stamps in Class texts.

Advanced Robotics: with the Toddler uses servos to control the motions of the
Parallax Toddler robot’s legs.
programming a machine to walk, maneuver, and keep its balance can be very
challenging. This walking robot is recommended for advanced students who
have already mastered the concepts in What’s a Microcontroller? and either
Robotics with the Boe-Bot or SumoBot.
Robotics with the Boe-Bot makes use of the same servo control principles you
just learned with a twist; servos can also be modified and used as rolling robot
motors. Using the BASIC Stamp, Board of Education, and Robotics with the
Boe-Bot kit, this text starts with the basics of robot navigation, then guides you
through navigation with sensors. It also introduces some more in-depth topics
such as solving problems with artificial intelligence and navigation using
elementary control systems.
Robot Sumo is a very exciting competition that is fun for observers and
participants. SumoBot is a guided tour through building, testing, and competing
with your own autonomous Mini-Sumo class SumoBot
offers a condensed presentation of the Robotics with the Boe-Bot text material
applied towards the goal of winning a robotic sumo wrestling contest.
