Abstract
Hardware Design: Our robot consists of a basic Lego kit NXT to which we have attached a set of 3 motors, one ultrasonic sensor.
Software Design: There is a main loop on which the robot analises if there are obstacles and moves unlimitedly forward in case of free track.
In the case that an obstacle appears closer than 20 cm, firefighter robot stops and blows some wind, then it turns to avoid obstacle and it continues the path.
Another condition is that if robot moves and there is a forced rotation of the compressor, it will return sound and rotate with the motor
The code is formulated on Lego Mindstorms
