add parts on the conveyor belt which will assist the process of picking up balls (the easiest option is long pins).
If you have any problems or the students find it difficult to build their robots, check the instructions below.
So far you have used the loop block to infinitely repeat your programs. Did you know that a program can be repeated until a condition evaluates to true without having to use the loop interrupt block?
Teacher's Note: What could we use as an opponent field and a net?
Your opponent field will be a square marked with tape. The field should be a little wider than the short side of a LEGO box. Robots can aim at the opponent field from any random position.
The net will be a box whose short side will be oriented to the robot. The idea is to achieve greater accuracy.
Both sources deal with plastic pollution and the way it affects the planet but the survey conducted by National Geographic is much more sophisticated.
The medium motor is the first motor that we can use to drive the attachments on our robots.
In this tutorial you will learn how to set up your robot to be controlled with the Controller. We start from the program created in the tutorial Setting up VEX IQ robot to be controlled by the Controller. Then add two more motors to be controlled from the joystick, so that you can operate the lifting mechanism of Pesho Bot with two bars lifting mechanism. However, this can be applied to other robots with such a mechanism. The program we create can be found in the Materials tab of the tutorial.
In this tutorial you will learn how to set up your robot to be controlled with the Controller using the Modkit for VEX. The robot that we are using is Pesho Bot, but the principle can be aplied to any VEX IQ robot.
Now it’s time to test but we see that the robot which will choose a color does not have a program. That is why we have prepared a block which will choose a random color!
In the previous task we saw how difficult it is to reach the goal without knowing where the starting point is. This is a very important lesson. The starting position of the robot is of utmost importance for the successful accomplishment of the tasks. Today’s robot is no exception.
First, we will start by a simple task which will teach us a valuable lesson. Then, we will move on to the tasks which will prepare us for the game.
In this lesson robots will use colors to communicate. There are a lot of things in our everyday lives which also use the same color system – for example, traffic lights use red to ban moving.
Think about areas of life which use colors as a way of communication and then start building your robots.
