Abstract
The main goal of this bachelor thesis was to give overview and explain the use and
programming of NXTSumoEyes Dual Range, Triple Zone Infrared Obstacle Detector sensor.
This thesis consists of three main parts wich are introduction to the physical phenomen
behind the sensors working principle, overview of the sensor and its programming and
exercises for solving with NXTSumoEyes sensor.
The first section tells us about infrared and how it can be used all around in our everyday
lifes, making life easier.
The second section talks about specifities related to the sensor and gives us an overview and
knowledge to start programming a robot with a given sensor.
The last part of the thesis consists on three exercises with different difficulty levels that were
created keeping in mind the use of the NXTSumoEyes sensor. Every exercise has a
description of what needs to be done, some help for solutions, and one possible detailed
solution, that has been tested working. In case there should be some problems, a possible
problems section with answers is given after every exercise. Solutions for the exercises in the
NXT-G development environment are on the CD that’s added to the extras of this bachelor’s
