This robotic turret is described in Chapter 8 of the Discovery Book. It is used to illustrate the concept of how sensors can be used on autonomous robots.
In one configuration, Shot-Roller rolls around while looking for objects to fire zamor spheres at. In another program, the robot can be remote controlled with Touch Sensors as inputs.
