Rules FOR STUDENTS
You must use:
-1 NXT or EV brick
-2 motors
-colour sensor (light sensor)
You must:
Build a robot pass all the checkpoints along a path and reach the end, knocking over a target (such as a can)
Tips For students
Tip: Movements need to be short as indicated in sample programming. In that example, (based on a RED LINE [5]), each movement only goes for 0.16 rotations. Lots of trial and error needed, depending on your robot, and the line you are trying to follow!
SAMPLE PROGRAMMING (older icon-based coding)
This is what you want your robot to do when it DOES NOT see the coloured line. (X)
SAMPLE PROGRAMMING (newer word block coding)
TEACHER INFO
Grading option: The quicker the time, the better the grade.
If you are timing each robot, make a copy of this Google Sheet to help you score
If you want to record checkpoints use this sheet.
