LEGO WALL-E (zWALL-E4) MINDSTORMS NXT ROBOT
A special LEGO WORLD Zwolle Edition Wall*E, the famous Hollywood robot from Disney/Pixar movie of the same name. This is my 4th generation. So i called it zWall-E4. It only has Mindstorms components (i.e. NO POWER FUNCTIONS and NO 3rd Party devices) and all bricks talk to each other via Bluetooth. The program is written in NXT-G 2.0 and has been designed to allow zWall-E4 to remain on a table top and do it’s show all day, which may explain the restraint movements seen in this video.
* Technical Specification:
3 NXT brick
8 NXT motor
2 Color sensors
4 Touch sensors
1 Ultrasonic sensor
* In essence, we could say, the inner workings of this Wall-E are100% LEGO MINDSTORMS.
* My Picasaweb album of the Work In Progress http://picasaweb.google.com/bazmati/ZwallE4uWIP#
* I started building him (it) on Sept 3rd… 7 days later I’m pretty satisfied with the result but it took nearly 20 day on/off doing mods and to figure out how to program NXT-G using 3 NXT’s via Bluetooth.
