This section briefly details the definitions of the sensors and their properties. For a more detailed description of the sensors, please refer to the sensor dashboard user guide.
Obstacle Sensor The intensity of IR light reflected back to the sensor from an obstacle
Obstacle Detected? The sensor’s best guess as to whether an obstacle is present. 1 = obstacle, 0 = no obstacle
Ambient IR - Front The intensity of IR light received by the obstacle sensor from elsewhere - this will be higher in sunlight!
Ground Sensor The intensity of IR light reflected back to the ground sensor from a surface. Will be higher on bright, reflective surfaces
Foot In Air? The sensor’s best guess as to whether the foot is in the air. 1 = foot in air, 0 = foot on ground
Ambient IR - Bottom The intensity of IR light received by the ground sensor from elsewhere
Brightness How much light is received by the sensor under the foot
Red Channel How much red light is received by the sensor under the foot
Green Channel How much green light is received by the sensor under the foot
Blue Channel How much blue light is received by the sensor under the foot
Obstacle Sensor The intensity of IR light reflected back to the sensor from an obstacle
Obstacle Detected? The sensor’s best guess as to whether an obstacle is present. 1 = obstacle, 0 = no obstacle
Foot In Air? The sensor’s best guess as to whether the foot is in the air. 1 = foot in air, 0 = foot on ground
Recent Noise Level The average noise level over the last fraction of a second
Noise level The average noise level over the last 100ms
Instant Noise Level The noise level this instant - will give higher values than the other options, but is also likely to miss some noises!
Light Level - Right Intensity of light from sensor 1, to Marty’s right if the light sensor is facing forwards
Light Level - Center Intensity of light from sensor 2, in front of Marty if the light sensor is facing forwards
Light Level - Left Intensity of light from sensor 3, to Marty’s left if the light sensor is facing forwards
