16. You are asked to design a mobile robot             Items 19–21 refer to the following scenario.
        for the fire department capable of
        automatically identifying a fire and           Mr Brown is an elderly carpenter who was
        extinguishing the flames. Which of the         recently diagnosed with a back problem. In his
        following core sensors should the robot        small workshop he works around a 4 ft table
        have?                                          where he cuts the wood, and a 2 ft table where he
                                                       carves his design in the board. Mr Brown would
          I. Temperature sensor                        like a chair designed to prevent him from
         II. Motion sensor                             standing for long periods around the 4 ft table and
        III. Obstacle sensor                           reduce the need to bend over the 2 ft table.
