My Lego Mindstorms version of everyone’s favorite robot, WALL-E. The picture shows Mindstorms WALL-E, Lego WALL-E, and EVE. WALL-E uses the light sensor on the bottom of his body for obstacle detection using IRPD, and uses the light sensor mounted on his neck for sensing bright lights. If WALL-E sees a bright light, he assumes it is EVE, and does a dance for her. Most of WALL-E’s functions, however, require human input, since I did not want to use two RCX’s. The switches on his shoulder control his arms and door. WALL-E also includes the solar panels he uses for recharging his battery. More Pictures
EDIT: I uploaded another picture of WALL-E in a different position.

Not bad? That is awsome, does the solar panal actually recharge the batteries to keep it runing, or does the batteries wear out eventually?

Ummm... I’m pretty sure those are plastic lego ”solar panels” Mike.
I have one of the original RCX style solar panels and they barely can power anything.

OK those solar panels deceived me
As for those RCX solar panels shouldn’t they generate 3v with 100ma so if you want the motor to run you might need alot!

I don’t know how much power they generate but they barely can power the RCX motors and certainly not enough power to move something like a rover. In other words they are useless unless you are just fooling around.
