| + | On July 28th (the next meeting), we will repeat most of the same commands --- but with sensors and operator assistance. The particular sensors that we will review are the button (a contact switch), the limit switch (contact switch) and the ultrasonic sensor (complex sensor). | ||

| + | If we have time to review more sensors, we will look at the light sensor, the encoders (simple and quadrature), the LED sensors (really just a light that we can turn on), and if we get one, a gyro/rate turn sensor. If we run out of time again, we will probably push these sensors to the next Tuesday. | ||
