NXT Robots

Hello, I'm here again and with a new post: NXT ROBOTS!

The Lego Mindstorms NXT is a programmable robotics kit released by Lego in 2006. The main component in the kit is a brick-shaped computer called the NXT brick. It can take input from up to four sensors and control up to three motors. The brick has a 100x64 pixel LCD display and four buttons that can be used to navigate a user interface using menus. It also has a speaker and can play sound files at sampling rates up to 8 kHz.

NXT Robots are used to compete in a lot of different tournaments. There are sumo combats, rescue events, and a lot more!

Here I leave you an example of a sumo combat. The objective of this event is to kick out from the "Tatami" the opponent's robot. I hope you like it!
