3.3 Utilizing Sensors

RVR+ is equipped with multiple sensors to gather real-time data and interact with its environment:

  • مستشعر اللون: Detects and reacts to different colors.
  • مستشعر الضوء: قياس مستويات الإضاءة المحيطة.
  • حساس الأشعة تحت الحمراء: For communication and obstacle detection.
  • Gyroscope and Accelerometer: Provides data on orientation and movement.

These sensors enable RVR+ to react to its surroundings, bridging coding with systems thinking.
