The object is for one contestant to push its opponent off the mat before it gets pushed out. In all but a few cases, the robot fighters are autonomous and are not controlled remotely by a human operator. The playing mat is typically 6 feet in diameter and is painted black. A white stripe is painted near the outside rim of the mat and is used by the robot to help it deter- mine the boundary of the playing field. Sumo competitions are separated into weight classes. All robots within a class must weigh less than the stipu- lated amount, such as 2, 10, or 20 pounds. No weaponry is typically allowed in a sumo competition— it’s all about pushing.

Same with sumo robot wrestling, where the aim is to push your opponent outside the game field—usually a round, black circle. All things considered, a heavier robot will push a lighter robot aside, but there is more science involved than you might think. • In most competitions, the advantage of weight is minimized by putting contestants into various classes. For the most part, you'll want your robot to be on the heavier side of its class, for any advantage that might give you. • Still, bear in mind that the heavier the robot, the harder it might be for its motors to provide adequate speed and torque. Don't blindly sacrifice agility for weight. A fast-moving robot can more readily get out of trouble or position itself for a sideways push. • Wheel traction is critical. Be sure to read the rules for the competition, as you may be restricted on the size, material, and thickness of the wheels you use. Soft rubber provides better traction and helps prevent your opponent from pushing you off the play field. Wider wheels offer increased surface area and therefore better traction. • A low center of gravity ensures your robot won't be easily turned over. A low, squat robot is usually the best design. • Many sumo robots use a scoop-like shovel at the front to partially lift their competitors off the play field. Once lifted, robots are easy prey. See if the competition rules allow for a shovel (most do not permit a weapon). computers 106 VComputers Listings in this section deal with computers for robot control, as well as computer interfacing and data acquisition. The emphasis is on small computers, particularly those that are self-contained and can be powered by a single 5- or 12-volt DC source. VComputers-Data Acquisition Data acquisition involves circuitry that converts an analog signal, such as temperature or vibration, to digital form so that it can be processed by a computer. This section lists data acquisition boards for PC-compatible computers as well as general-purpose data acquisition modules. Data acquisition modules typically provide their data through a standard interface, such as PC parallel port, RS-232, or USB.

You want your robot to be at least as smart as the Scarecrow, right? You can be your own wizard of Emerald City by giving out brains to your robotic creations. Instead of some phoney-baloney diploma, the brains you give your robots will be electronic in nature. The only trick is— which electronics? Noncomputer Electronic Components Noncomputer discrete components—transistors, resistors, capacitors, and integrated circuits—can be used to control a robot. Such robots typically are "hard-wired" to perform some task, such as follow a line or seek out light. BEAM robots are a good example of machines that have noncomputer brains: No number crunching is going on in their electronics. Rather, simple electronic circuits compel the robot to move. A popular design uses a 555 timer IC to control a motor. Separate 555 chips control each motor of a two-wheeled robot. The 555 timer outputs a series of short pulses, and the duration of these pulses determines the speed of the motor. If one motor goes a little slower than the other, the robot will move in wide, sweeping arcs. Add some bumper switches to the robot to back it up and another 555 to time how long the robot reverses direction, and the machine will do a remarkable job of navigating around a room. Watching the robot, you'd think the thing were controlled by a computer, but its "brain" is a simple collection of parts you can buy at Radio Shack. (If you're interested, the design for such a robot can be found in the book, Mobile Robots: From Inspiration to Implementation, among other sources.) Computers and Microcontrollers As attractive as noncomputer brains are, they are basically "hard-wired" as circuitry, and making changes to them requires lots of work. A robot controlled by a computer can be “rewired” simply by changing the software running on the computer. There is an almost endless variety of computers that be used as robot brains. The three most common are: • Microcontroller, programmed either in assembly language or a high-level language such as Basic or C. The LEGO Mindstorms RCX is a good example of a robot run from a microcontroller. Microcontrollers are available in 4-, 8-, 16-, and 32-bit versions (plus a few others, for special purposes). The Basic Stamp, PICmicro, AVR, OOPic, and BasicX are good examples of microcontrollers commonly used in amateur robotics. • Single board computer, also programmed either in assembly language or a high-level language, but generally with more processing power than a microcontroller. Single board computers (SBCs) are a lot like "junior PCs," but on a single circuit board. In fact, many SBCs are IBM PC-compatible and use Intel microprocessors capable of running any Intel-based program, including the MS-DOS operating system. A common SBC form factor is PC/104, which gets its name from "Personal Computer" (originally of IBM fame) and the number of pins (104) used to connect two or more PC/104-compatible boards together. • Personal computer, such as a PC compatible or an Apple Macintosh, or even an older model such as the venerable Commodore 64. A good option for robotics is a PC-compatible laptop, particularly the older monochrome models that required less battery power. They're also fairly inexpensive on the used market. computers-data acquisition 108 Prairie Digital, Inc. 202208 920 Seventheenth St. Industrial Park Du Sac, WI 53578 USA  (608) 643-8599  (608) 643-6754  sales@prairiedigital.com  http://www.prairiedigital.com/ Prairie Digital sells I/O and interface boards: • General-purpose data acquisition system for PCs • 8-bit analog-to-digital converter • 12-bit analog-to-digital converter • Serial port data acquisition and control module • Low-cost 5 1/2-digit A/D with RS-232 serial control • Relay board x  VComputers-I/O I/O stands for input/output, circuitry designed to interface a computer to external circuitry. On a PC, I/O is used to connect the computer to a printer, for example. The I/O performs important functions of conditioning the data and acting as a barrier to prob- lems caused by the external device. The idea here is that it’s cheaper to replace an I/O board or module than the complete computer. The I/O listed in this section is particularly suited for robotics and other embedded applications. Depending on the configuration, I/O can be used with single board computers (SBCs) or with microcontrollers. Examples of I/O modules include relay bays (the computer activates the relays from program control), self- contained Web servers, and generic interfaces to step- per motor or H-bridge drivers.

Robots need both input and output—ways to get data from the outside world (input), and ways to control external devices, like motors (output) There are several specialized forms of I/O found on computers and microcontrollers that robots can use. Many are proprietary to a given circuit architecture: Microcontrollers from National may favor one approach; chips from Philips may favor another. In the end, many do similar jobs. Serial Communications I2C—Inter-Integrated Circuit, a two-wire serial network protocol used by Philips to allow integrated circuits to communicate with one another. With I2C you can install two or more microcontrollers in a robot and have them communicate with one another. One I2C-equipped microcontroller may be the "master," while the others are used for special tasks, such as interrogating sensors or operating the motors. Microwire—A serial synchronous serial communications protocol used in National Semiconductor products, and popular for use with the PICMicro line of microcontrollers from Microchip Technologies. Most Microwire-compatible components are used for interfacing with microcontroller/microprocessor support electronics, such as memory and analog-to-digital converters. SCI—Serial communications interface, an enhanced version of the UART, detailed later. SPI—Serial peripheral interface standard used by Motorola and others to communicate between devices. Like Microwire, SPI is most often used for interfacing with microcontroller/microprocessor support electronics, especially outboard EEPROM memory. Synchronous serial port—Data is transmitted one bit at a time, using two wires. One wire contains the transmitted data, and the other wire contains a clock signal. The clock serves as a timing reference for the transmitted data. Note that this is different from asynchronous serial communication (see the following), which does not use a separate clock signal. UART—Universal asynchronous receiver transmitter, used for serial communications between devices, such as your PC and the robot's computer or microcontroller. Asynchronous means that there is no separate synchronizing system for the data. Instead, the data itself is embedded with special bits (called start and stop bits) to ensure proper flow. The USART (Universal Synchronous/Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) can be used in either asynchronous or synchronous mode, providing for faster throughput of data. Data Conversion ADC—Analog-to-digital conversion transforms analog (linear) voltage changes to binary (digital). ADCs can be outboard, contained in a single integrated circuit, or included as part of a microcontroller. Multiple inputs on an ADC chip allow a single IC to be used with several inputs (4, 8, and 16 input ADCs are common). DAC—Digital-to-analog conversion transforms binary (digital) signals to analog (linear) voltage levels. DACs are not as commonly employed in robots; rather they are commonly found on such devices as compact disc players. J-Works, Inc. 202196 12328 Gladstone St. Unit 1 Sylmar, CA 91342 USA  (818) 361-0787  (818) 270-2413  sales@j-works.com  http://www.j-works.com/ PC and USB I/O products, including: • A/D converters computers-i/o 111 Pulse and Frequency Management Input capture—An input to a timer that determines the frequency of an incoming digital signal. With this information, for example, a robot could differentiate between inputs, such as two different locator beacons in a room. Input capture is similar in concept to a tunable radio. PWM—Pulse width modulator, a digital output that has a square wave of varying duty cycle (e.g., the "on" time for the waveform is longer or shorter than the "off" time). Often used with a simple resistor and capacitor to approximate digital-to-analog conversion, to create sound output, and to control the speed of a DC motor. Pulse accumulator—An automatic counter that counts the number of pulses received on an input over x period of time. The pulse accumulator is part of the architecture of the microprocessor or microcontroller and can be programmed autonomously; that is, the accumulator can be collecting data even when the rest of the microprocessor/microcontroller is busy running some other program. Special Functions Hardware interrupts—Interrupts are special input that provides a means to get the atten- tion of a microprocessor or microcontroller. When the interrupt is triggered, the microprocessor can temporarily suspend normal program execution and run a special sub- program. Comparator—An input that can compare a voltage level against a reference; the value of the input is then lower (0) or higher (1) than the reference. Comparators are most often used as simple analog-to-digital converters where HIGH and LOW are represented by something other than the normal voltage levels (which can vary, depending on the kind of logic circuit used). For example, a comparator may trigger HIGH at 2.7 volts. Normally, a digital circuit will treat any voltage over about 0.5 or 1 volt as HIGH; anything else is considered LOW. Analog/mixed-signal (A/MS)—Inputs (and often outputs) that can handle analog or digital signals, under software guidance. Many microcontrollers are designed to handle both analog and digital signals on the same chip, and to even mix -and match analog/digital on the same pins of the device. External reset—An input that resets the computer or microcontroller so that it clears any data in RAM and restarts its program (the program stored in EEPROM or elsewhere is not erased). Switch debouncer—Cleans up the signal transition when a mechanical switch (push but- ton, mercury, magnetic reed, etc.) opens or closes. Without a debouncer, the control electronics may see numerous signal transitions and could interpret each one as a separate switch state. With the debouncer, the control electronics sees just a single transition. Input pullup—Pullup resistors (5 to 10K) are required for many kinds of inputs to control electronics. If the source of the input is not actively generating a signal, the input could "float" and therefore confuse the robot's brain. The pullup resistors, which can be built into a microcontroller and activated via software, prevent this floating from occurring. [...]...
