of an artificialpotential field U(q). The robot moves by following the field, just as a ball would roll downhill.The goal acts as an attractive force on the robot and the obstacles act as repulsive forces. Thesuperposition of all forces is applied to the robot, which, in most cases, is assumed to be apoint in the configuration space. Such an artificial potential field smoothly guides the robottoward the goal while simultaneously avoiding known obstacles. The basic idea behind thismethod is that the robot is attracted toward the goal, while being repulsed by the obstaclesthat are known in advance.The capsule could traverse the whole GI tract by implementing the above algorithm. But inthis scenario, we only take into consideration the

instead of an analogswitch. The TIMS-provided BPSK experiment was simplified to eliminate the phase shifter andline-code encoder, but still have a functional modulator that produces the expected BPSKwaveform. Instead of using an M-level encoder to generate I and Q data signals from a bitstream, as is done in a TIMS-provided experiment, a QPSK modulator is constructed inExperiment 6 using two independent data streams from the Sequence Generator module, eachmultiplies either a sine or cosine carrier, and the two modulated carriers are added. The use ofthe spectrum-analyzer capabilities built into the oscilloscope again allows students to view signalspectra. Students easily verify that the bandwidth of the BPSK signal with message data at

In flight the pilot reclines backwards, a comfortable position for pedaling that allows shifting of the center of gravity during flight, see Figure 8.
