Lesson 1 - Color Sensor
Introduction
In this course, we will construct different military vehicles and constructions.
Have you seen, probably in movies, how people use small light sticks to help airplanes land. These sticks are use to help drivers of heavy vehicles navigate in traffic without accidents.
In today's' lesson we will build an Ammo Truck. We will attach to it a new sensor - color sensor. We will learn more about it, how it works and how to program it. Later, we will use it to give different commands to the truck.
