Now we will create the first program in this course and we will make the robot move forward.
EV3 MicroPython comes with pre-recorded sound files. Here's how to program your robot to play them.
In this lesson we will program our robot to display emotions!
Let's make a competition - there is a pole that the robot must turn around and return home.
We explore some common mistakes when a program is developed and becomes complex. We then try to remove part of this complexity.
This program is for Cardiidae - a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Clam robot. It provides a solution for the final tasks in Lesson 1, level D1. It makes the clam robot detect when it is being opened and then to close itself.
The important task before the solution. If you haven't done it already, then attach a new axle at the front of the robot and extend the construction with gear wheels and axles to reach the two legs at the two sides of the robot.
The goal of this lesson is to introduce students to the setting for measuring the reflected light of the color sensor and to recall how to follow a line.
This lesson consists of two missions. The first one is to program the sailboat to move in square using the EV3 Gyro sensor and the second one is to program the sailboat to move in triangle. The second one can be treated as additional task.
There are few common challenges that the students face, such as forgetting to increase the threshold value of the gyro sensor and turning on the measure of the inside angle, not the exterior! Bellow are listed solutions to the tasks as well as some common mistakes.
