A demo robot created by a small group of former FLL participants. Completes one Food Factor mission, the thermometer. Technically, it also completes another mission by ending up on the east wall, but I’m not really counting that. Also, before people start complaining, I know about the third big fish that’s normally in the way of that run, I’m assuming that it had been removed on a previous run. Uses three sensors (2 light and one ultrasonic) and a variety of navigational methods (wall following, line following, dead reckoning using a custom motor control algorithm).
Digital ThermometerThere are many varieties of thermometers. I want to tell you about the digital thermometer-hygrometer. It gathers weather related data such as outdoor and indoor temperatures. You can also measure temperatures of liquids using a retractable probe. With the help of the inbuilt sensor the device can measure relative humidity indoors. The information on the current weather and on how it is changing is shown on a large LCD display. It is regularly updated based on the readings. The device also has a quartz clock (showing hours, minutes and seconds) as well as an automatic calendar. To turn on the thermometer insert the AAA battery that comes with the device. It is important that you observe the polarity. You can place the device on a table using the stand. You can also hang it with the help of a small nail. To measure outdoor temperatures use the remote sensor. The sensor can be placed outside the window with the help of the 3m cord. To set the current time and date, keep the “set” button pressed for 5 seconds. The values being set will start blinking. Using the “+” and “-” buttons set the current date and time in the following order: the year, the month, the day, then hours and minutes. To confirm the settings press “set”. Your settings will be saved. The value displayed on the very top of the display is the outdoor temperature. The indoor temperature and the relative humidity are right below. Time and date are displayed at the bottom. The device can …

To passionate chefs, cooking is an art. Knowing exactly when a cut of meat is cooked to perfection requires knowing your meat and your grill. But with a little bit of technology, we can build a digital meat thermometer, and use digital signal processing techniques to get a much faster response. This video explains how we can use the predictably slow heat transfer inside the temperature probe to mathematically model the sensor, and ultimately get a much faster response, with a little bit microcontroller computing power!
