Programmable robot

The robot can follow a preset route. To do this, use the control keys on the front panel to set the robot's movement: forward, backward, right turn, left turn. The command sequence can be up to 10, and it's stored in an array.

  1. The problem

    How to make a robot that you can control

  2. The idea

    Create a robot whose movements can be programmed.

  3. The prototype

    Using the EV3, we made a robot that can be programmed using the keys on the front panel.

  4. The result

    The command sequence can be no more than 10, and it's stored in an array. However, it can be expanded. The sequence is entered by pressing the central key on the block. After that, it starts playing from the beginning. As the robot moves, it animates its eyes.

What we learned

Demonstration of software control, we give commands and the robot executes them
