THE DANCE OF KAA / Dancing Kaa, hypnotized monkeys

Programming level 1

Monkey troop and dancing Kaa

P1

How to build

Monkey troop and dancing Kaa - "A" version

The monkey troop is a group of built-up figures mounted on axles, with a design suitable for puppetry.
Kaa is mounted on 1 DC motor and its body sections are turned by axles.
The DC motor plugs directly into the attached battery holder, so Kaa á moves from on to off without programming.

Monkey troop and dancing Kaa - "B" version

The monkeys are the same structure as in a.).
Kaa is a moving figure with 2 red LEDs mounted on a robotic base.
Kaa 's program starts automatically, his forward progress echoes the serpentine motion characteristic of snakes with rapid changes of direction,
The LEDs are lit all the time.

How to build

Kaa on the ground and in the tree - "A" version

The monkey troop all the way, as in P1.

Kaa 's program is triggered by pressing 1 Touch sensor.
Movement as in P1/b), but the LEDs flash.

Kaa on the ground and in the tree - "B" version

The monkey troop all the way, as in P1.

Kaa hangs from a large tree and has a servo motor built into one of its body sections, which is connected to the tree.
1 Touch sensor starts Kaa 's program and he swings on the tree branch
The LEDs at the eyes flash while the robot moves, indicating hypnosis.

Dancing snake, hypnotised monkeys

P3

How to build

Monkey troop

The monkey troop is equipped with 1-1 servo motors for 1-1 actor, 1 IR Photoreflector and 1 green LED.
The two monkeys, which can be moved by servo motors, when 1 IR photoreflector detects Kaa, turn and the green LED flashes to indicate hypnotisation.

Kaa

Kaa is mounted on a robot base with 2 DC motors,
2 red LEDs on the head with 2 eyes
Controlled by a console with 4 touch sensors, it moves in 4 directions
This way the robot can be directed in front of the monkey team, which triggers the monkeys to move.
Each direction has a different LED light/flash/off programmed.

Dancing snake, hypnotised monkeys

P4

How to build

Monkey troop

The monkey team is equipped with 2 IR photoreflectors, 1 green LED and 1 servo motor for each of the 3 monkeys.
The three monkeys, which can be moved by servo motors, turn simultaneously in the direction in which they face the IR sensor.

Kaa

Kaa is still built on 2 robotic bases with DC motors, with 2 red LEDs at its eyes.
His program starts automatically, the 2 red LEDs light up while he moves forward. At the front, pointing downwards, there is 1 IR photoreflector, which detects the black stripe, the robot stops, the LEDs turn off.
Randomly turns left or right until one of the IR photoreflectors is placed on the monkey team.
When Kaa , stops, the monkeys turn in the direction of the sensor and the green LED starts blinking.
