This LEGO NXT robot is sure to be a hit at your next outdoor fireworks show. Just line it up and let it go.

“This autonomous NXT robot will light multiple fireworks in a sequence - while the family sits back and watch the display!!

It uses a MINDSTORMS NXT, two light sensors (one for navigation and other to detect a lighted fuse) and an Ultrasonic detector (to adjust the torch arm height depending on the height of the fireworks fuse wire. It uses three motors - two for motion and and the third for the torch arm elvator.”
