Sticker controlled robot!
Archive: 76 posts
This is a concept that i'm half way through creating, and is been made for no reason other than because I can!  As the title says, it is a sticker controlled robot. However, it is more complex than it sounds. To use it, you are given a set of blocks, each with 26 sticker switches on, corresponding to the letters of the alphabet stickers found in the tutorials. In effect, you spell out commands that the robot had been pre-programmed to know, which it would then complete. I'll draw up an example if anyone needs it. So far, it only knows "Left", but i'm intending on programming in "Right" and "Rave". The level itself will be a simple demo with explanations. Thoughts?  | 2010-07-23 21:06:00 Author: Fish94  Posts: 554 |
| Wow, that actually sounds really awesome. Good luck and if you need ideas for command, I'd like a sleep command where it shows a zzz in the air and a jump command. Plus, if you could make it move it's arms and all, then maybe you could also have a commans to make it dance! That'd be funny. I can't wait to try out the demo. | 2010-07-24 04:24:00 Author: Dragonvarsity  Posts: 5208 |
| ......keep us updated with this sticker robot. mainly cuz it sounds interesting and i want to know everything | 2010-07-24 04:24:00 Author: domoqueen  Posts: 170 |
| Thanks people, i'm not at home tonight but i'll be working on it sunday night "Dance" was one of my original ideas, but I didnt have the energy to make the arms xD Sleep sounds cool too, I might put those into V2 after I release the first demo! | 2010-07-24 20:33:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Awesome, thanks! it's totally okay if you can't add dance, I could imagine it being quite tricky and I can't wait to try the demo and thanks for confirming the sleep control. It'll be great to see that kind of action implemented. If you need any other ideas/testers, I'd be happy to do so! | 2010-07-25 04:26:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| The Moon Walk... best dance move of all time | 2010-07-25 04:44:00 Author: Unknown User  |
| Ohhh. That sounds difficuly yet quite interesting. Mind giving me a heads up when its done? I'd love to see this robot in action. | 2010-07-25 04:52:00 Author: Silverleon  Posts: 6707 |
| If it can fly, WHILE DOING THE RAVER PUNCH, then i've seen everything... | 2010-07-25 08:43:00 Author: Eonknight  Posts: 119 |
| Wow, this is a really awesome idea mate. The title doesn't give the idea justice, I was thinking it would left, right, shoot and was confused as to why you would use stickers of all things to control it. How wrong I was. This is probably one of the most original ideas floating around at the moment and I want to see just how much is possible with the thermo maxed. Of course the number of actions would depend on how the robot is built. I really think you should try and go all out on this, it'd be amazing to see. | 2010-07-25 09:01:00 Author: SR20DETDOG  Posts: 2431 |
| Heh interesting idea. I'd love to see this in action. If you ever get this up and running well and it looks so awesome that my head might explode from sheer awesomeness, TELLZ MEH! | 2010-07-25 09:29:00 Author: Limesta-  Posts: 559 |
| Agh, people make me blush! As I said before, I shall get to work on it ASAP. I did think the title wasn't very good, but I didn't know what else to put xD Also, I may have ran into a slight error D: If I had a sticker switch attatched to an emmiter, would the object demit when the sticker is removed? | 2010-07-25 10:51:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |

I pretty sure it doesn't demit. That doesn't happen with any other switches. | 2010-07-25 11:32:00 Author: SR20DETDOG Posts: 2431 |
| Kay, thats nothing major. Just means i'll have to change the emitted blocks and have a "reset" switch that wipes away all of the blocks currently there. | 2010-07-25 16:00:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Hey, if you need a better name how about this. The Stickerbot X500 - it moves, it shoots and it'll fall asleep if it's bored. Yes, a robot can get bored. At least yours can or should. | 2010-07-27 00:59:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| xD That would be awesome! I could prolly program something like that, but I would need to fix all the current errors, which I shall do later today i'd imagine! | 2010-07-27 08:37:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Oooo! this is a very good Idea, sounds very interesting, love to see this done but, I had an idea. if you don't do something he gets bored after 20-30 seconds and after 10 or so seconds after that he falls asleep that would be rather cool, and yeah... well. good luck building this robot killing machine... I mean... ugh... never mind -cough!- build a death bot -cough!- well... cya later. | 2010-07-27 09:08:00 Author: huntedstorm  Posts: 488 |
| Out of interest how you going about the logic? I was thinking it would work via a series of AND gates, one for each action, which are activated by a system that recognises letter and the position of the letter. But your question about the emitter got me wondering about how you are going about it. | 2010-07-27 13:43:00 Author: SR20DETDOG Posts: 2431 |
| Uh.. I really don't know how to best explain it xD You'll see soon enough, i'll put a grab switch that lets you see the logic. | 2010-07-27 15:54:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Not to double post, but I must point out that as of 20:46, Tuesday July 27th 2010, I have fallen at the last hurdle. I can't finish the **** thing because the resetting wont work. D: | 2010-07-27 20:47:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Fish94 I am requesting permission to continue your work | 2010-07-27 20:50:00 Author: Unknown User |
| I haven't given up yet xD Its just I havent actually slept in 24 hours at least, so logic is kind of hell to me right now. | 2010-07-27 21:10:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| oooh... I thought you meant you couldnt finish it so your giving up | 2010-07-27 21:13:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Make him do the "robot" dance and instead of him doing actual dance moves....a Question Mark apears and a speech bubble saying "really?! you couldn't have thought of something better?" That would be awesome! | 2010-07-28 05:39:00 Author: ToneLoc1983  Posts: 4 |
| I know your probably really busy but if you need another idea for an action here's one Self destruct Then it says " Does not compute, does not compute. Error! Errooooooor! " *Head explodes off* | 2010-07-28 13:44:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| Lawl xD The new ideas are great. If I can fix the programming error, i'll be sure to add some in! | 2010-07-28 15:01:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Awesome, thanks. I just don't wanna be one of those people who constantly ask for new things and new things while your trying to get the older things done first. | 2010-07-28 15:06:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| Self destruct Then it says " Does not compute, does not compute. Error! Errooooooor! " *Head explodes off* I wouldn't care about any other command, I would do that one over and over and over again. | 2010-07-28 16:06:00 Author: Limesta- Posts: 559 |
| After completely effing up the level, I found out it was due to the most minor error i've ever made xD It'll be up soon guys, thanks for the support! EDIT: Another glitch >:[ Think it aint going to work guys. I'll leave it a while and retry later, but no promises. | 2010-07-28 17:03:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
Okay, sorry for the errors and glitches.  This is a great idea and I hope the bugs can be fixed. And just in case if there are any more, I'd be happy to test it and say every command. Also, unless people want to do the other commands with his head off, you should have his head emit a couple seconds after it explodes if that command happens. Also, it probably should just in case they want to contuously have it's head explode off without restarting the level. Maybe there could be an action called growth and a new head appears, lol. I don't know. Multiple ways of doing it. | 2010-07-28 22:47:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
Haha, yeah, perhaps  I wish these **** emitters would stop being annoying D: | 2010-07-29 01:16:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| I have created a very basic version of what I would call a Sticker Robot. If you want to try you have to go to my key vault.. I never locked the key away so it will be sitting on the ground in my key vault. Pick it up and go to my Level. I only have 2 commands but I only did it that way because I wanted to show it to Fish94 Also only fish94 gets to see the logic | 2010-07-29 02:11:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Only fish gets to see the logic? *Gets jealous* | 2010-07-29 04:34:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| Lol, the logic needs upgrading anyway.. big news everyone Fish's robot will not work as he told me so I am officially taking over this project. I am working hard on my robot with many joints which allow me to have alot of controll Expect good work | 2010-07-29 04:46:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Too bad Fish's doesn't work anymore. But it is good to hear such a great idea won't forever be forgotten like a lot are. | 2010-07-29 10:42:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| Yeah, it's all on TheChannel now, I have no idea what is wrong with mine. I think I made the logic too compact and complex, but I really have no idea. | 2010-07-29 14:52:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Are you going to work with TheChannel or is it just him? | 2010-07-29 15:04:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| (I would like help from him but.. apparently his internet suck so we cant go into create mode or something like that. I am willing to get help from someone.. | 2010-07-29 17:32:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Yeah, my internet fails so it just glitches and freaks out when I go on online create. I can try to help and will, but it might not work. | 2010-07-29 18:04:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Okay, just wondering. I stink at logic but I think I do great with ideas and brainstorming so if you need an idea for what it should looks like, or what it's actions should be, I could hep. | 2010-07-29 18:28:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| I was gone all day yesterday and most of today but I am back, anyone is welcome to add me on PSN and see what is happening If anyone is good at Logic they can help too. My logic does work but has limitation and if you think you can fix them please tell me Also if anyone saw my level and thinks it was a simple robot.. dont worry I made a robot with many pistons and wobble bolts Pictures will be added up later today | 2010-07-30 22:42:00 Author: Unknown User |
| I haven't played it yet but I will try soon. | 2010-07-31 05:01:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| Meh, i'll check it out in a while and tell you what I think. | 2010-07-31 15:35:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Although the stickering for a command sounds good. Ever think about having an alphabet ready? Such as, you select the letters you want, then you select enter? It surely is possible, a friend of mine, is currently working on an alphabet that is translated to binary. This would create a more complex system, but it would be cool. Being that some people do not have all the stickers. | 2010-07-31 16:34:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Well I am using an alphabet and something like an enter button. Example: [W] [A] [V] [E] [ ] Send Button --> [| Then a new set of command boxes enter. (This fixes my biggest problem by getting a new set of command boxes) | 2010-07-31 18:14:00 Author: Unknown User |
| I just checked it out, I assume you haven't updated yet? Looks the same to me. | 2010-07-31 19:02:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| yea its not updated, it wont be updated for a while unfortunatly (While as in a few days or less) I have a bunch of ideas on how to do this and im trying some out. | 2010-07-31 19:15:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Sounds interesting, I'll check it out and see what advice I can give. (The alphabet idea was to avoid using stickers) | 2010-08-01 02:12:00 Author: Unknown User |
| I checked out your robot. I expected to find something far more complex. To help you, I'll create an example, allowing repetition of the same function. When I'm done, I'll show it to you. Ill keep it simple using the sticker switch. (Hate that the alphabet is all the way at the bottom of the list :/ ) | 2010-08-01 03:21:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Dont worry i only created that robot very quickly and it was to give Fish94 an idea of what can happen. New problem: My sticker boxes have created a lot of themro due to there being hundreds and hundreds of sticker switches.. I am pretty sure I can lower this drascticly but I have to go on the PS3 first and try out my idea. I am interested in the alphabet idea you have though.. Ill add you on PSN tonight. Also if anyone wants to create a robot for me I will gladley look at it. (I already have one I like but could be better) Also double posting is frowned upon the community so for next time please use the Edit button found in the botten right hand of your post. Thanks | 2010-08-01 03:56:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Hmmm, check my published levels, I named it Sticker Robot Concept, or something of that sort. I just recreated what you had published. Having multiple commands shouldn't be so difficult. To avoid having so many sticker switches, why not try and have a set amount of letters. And only a limited amount of space to place them. Lets say you want the robot to fire rockets, you would abreviate it to a 4 letter word. such as FRRK (FiRe RocKets). Using this method could reduce much thermo. You would have a list, allowing players to know what each represents. | 2010-08-01 05:45:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Very cool. Don't understand a bit. | 2010-08-01 05:50:00 Author: Bremnen Posts: 1800 |
| The thing I wanted to happen is that i dont tell them the commands and they have trial and error but if worse comes to worse I will try it your way. Cant find the level PS. I couldnt add you M_Logic_E because u have max friends | 2010-08-01 06:14:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Yeah sorry, my friendlist is always maxed, I delete someone and a friend request appears. Did you try searching under my name? The badge of the level is just cardboard. | 2010-08-01 06:23:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Yea I searched under your name, are you sure u didnt lock it? There are some locked levels | 2010-08-01 06:26:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Nah, Ill go check if it locked, I dont think I locked it, I finished my demo and published it. | 2010-08-01 06:28:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Your logic is insane, sir. | 2010-08-01 06:30:00 Author: Bremnen Posts: 1800 |
| I just re-searched and it appreared, playing it now Edit: I played I thought it was great. I would like to see the logic behind the work. If this proves to be the dominate logic I will request permission to use it with all credit given of course. Also is there a reason to used Glitched Grababale Cardboard? | 2010-08-01 06:32:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Ahh ok good, I went and republished just incase if it was not in the system. Edit: I will capture and place in a prize bubble and republish. -I used all cardboard because I felt like making it all look like 1 material >_> | 2010-08-01 06:38:00 Author: Unknown User |
| I edited my last post incase nobody noticed ^.^ | 2010-08-01 06:40:00 Author: Unknown User |
| This sounds great! I am going to follow your work... | 2010-08-01 06:48:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Republished and placed inside a prize bubble, I think you can figure out how to get it -btw, so for the time delays, I have internet using an ethernet cord. So I have to transition between my computer and my Playstation. | 2010-08-01 06:53:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Apparently this is impressive, so i'm going to check yours out M_Logic_E. EDIT: PLayed it, worked very well, though i'd like to point out it was my concept, not TheChannels. | 2010-08-01 13:08:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Yea, Concept by Fish94 Remake of TheChannel's Robot Logic by M_Logic_E | 2010-08-01 17:42:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Hey I tried it out and it was cool but the robot looks bland, maybe add some eyes and that stuff. I can't wait for the other animations though. | 2010-08-01 18:27:00 Author: Dragonvarsity Posts: 5208 |
| Yeah sorry, It was just a rough model so, TheChannel could look at it. And sorry, Ill change my stuff, basically what TheChannel said, "Concept by Fish94 Remake of TheChannel's Robot" - Ill add that. If you would like me to add any additional commands, I can do it. | 2010-08-01 23:17:00 Author: Unknown User |
| It looks like M_Logic_E has the better logic (or atleast looks likes it). I need to play around with a little and try to figure out how to add a new command. I dont have experience with this type of Logic. I would really like it if you M_Logic_E help me understand that object. | 2010-08-01 23:40:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Alright man, I'll delete someone so you can add me. Sorry, I made my logic compact, meaning, there are some switches you might not be able to see. Using the current method, it can a couple of commands. But it can be expanded to hold even more. | 2010-08-01 23:47:00 Author: Unknown User |
| My method worked perfectly, I just effed it up somewhere along the line. | 2010-08-02 00:44:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Oh, I thought it was junk or something. If you capture it as an object and put it in a level I would be happily to look for the problem or a way around it. | 2010-08-02 00:55:00 Author: Unknown User |
| I am also interested in viewing how yours worked/works. It'd be nice if you presented it to us. | 2010-08-02 06:01:00 Author: Unknown User |
| the eyes should be made up of a block of LEDS conected to mag keys and switches so you can do blinks | 2010-08-02 11:43:00 Author: huntedstorm Posts: 488 |
| I'll make it locked and copyable, if that's possible, and i'll make a keyroom. Since i'm too lazy to make anything decent for it, the blue monkey face thingy sticker will act as the key. | 2010-08-02 15:57:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| I'll check it out soon, I failed the first time since I tried looking for Fish94 and I just noticed that is not your PSN :O Ill search for a_m_08 when I get on. | 2010-08-02 22:23:00 Author: Unknown User |
| I haven't made it yet, i'll notify you once I have. EDIT: Keylevel made. It's actually a cunning trick: Though it tells you to put the keys in the correct order, you actually have to go up to the top of the level with the jetpack. When you see the circular vent, grab and keep going up. There will be a small section with the key and the scoreboard. I'd imagine it'll be enough to trick most people :] | 2010-08-02 23:12:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
| Funny, I checked it a couple of hours after I commented on this and just saw your post. I figured it out when I played, since its impossible to lift the keys, and obviously the room was bigger that it was suppose too, then I saw the dissolve lol. I found it funny ...anyway... Your concept is pretty much like mine, although, mine is more compact, I just looked on how yours was working but didnt feel like editing it. The "e" for the second box was not emmiting where it was suppose to, that was the only thing I saw that stood out. | 2010-08-03 04:53:00 Author: Unknown User |

For some reason, everything suddenly went out of time. | 2010-08-03 14:34:00 Author: Fish94 Posts: 554 |
