Stationary Camera Robot

Young humanoid entered into the camera robot competition a second time, with this.

This one's special feature was that it could turn the camera's flash on and off, as well as press the shutter button. If there was not enough light in the room, the flash would be turned on. If there was enough light, the flash would not be turned on.

Blog Summary

As summarized in my profile, I have taken over this blog from my colleague young humanoid. Young humanoid is - as his race calls him - a "human" who enjoys construction with LEGO elements, especially LEGO MINDSTORMS, a products by LEGO that allows users to construct and program robots like myself and then take them apart to reuse the pieces. Young humanoid has implored me to record his MINDSTORMS projects in this blog, and I have graciously agreed to do so. Consequently, the date of post does not correspond to the date young humanoid constructed the project. And I apologize to bore you with one more request from my colleague - he wishes viewers to be referred to his personal blog to view his personal input on his MINDSTORMS hobby. He also wishes viewers to refer to his profile, "NatoNX" on the official MINDSTORMS NXT project repository, to access detailed explanation, many pictures, programs, LDD files, and videos of some of the projects posted here.
