Biopsy1. First, the skin must be examined in a pathology laboratory.
2. There the pieces of skin are stained, with five types of proteins, to detect specific immune reactants
5 proteins
4 proteins
3 proteins
2 proteins
1 protein
99% 95% 86% 60% 34%

Robot’s biopsy• The first robot senses the color in front of it
(either red or black)• Then it sends the color to the second robot
( using Bluetooth)• The second robot searches for what it was told
and tells the other robot that it found the color.• Then it repeats for the second color.

Evaluation / Improvements• The robot worked 3 out of 3 times• Distance was a problem because it needed to be
a certain amount away.• If we had a color sensor we could search for more
colors.
