News Feed: Week 4

During week 4 we received the Lego NXT robotics kit and began designing models of projects. We looked into past projects done and brainstormed ideas for a project that we would want to do. We decided to build a tri-bot platform onto which the students could add sensors and write code which would complete objectives that we place. One of the ideas that we were considering was to have the students design the robot to follow a line until they reach either a colored area or an object and bring the object back to a designated location. We were also thinking about having the students make use of the speakers on the bot to say which colored object it was picking up.
