As I was standing outside today and listening to the woodpeckers in the trees I came up with an idea for a bot using the NXT sound sensor. You've guessed it, a bird finder/tracker. The bot could simply rotate towards the direction of the sound. And (...) (21 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)
