ROBOT SOCCER

Project Name: Robot Soccer
Controlled by: Programming or Remote Control
Programming Difficulty: Medium-Hard
Construction Difficulty: Medium
General Comment. This is a great activity. 

Rules FOR STUDENTS


​You must use:
-1 NXT or EV brick
-2 motors

You must:
Build a robot that can play soccer against others. 

Tips For students


Tip: Cars with four wheels will go straighter. Especially if both motors turn one axel.
Tip: Cars that use gears will go faster. A big gear on the motor and a small gear on the wheel will make the wheel turn faster. To use gears, the wheel's axel can't go through the motor's hole.

SAMPLE PROGRAMMING

This video uses a computer (rather than tablet) to program, and special sensors and ball. It's pretty high tech. If it's too hard,  students will have had just as much fun, if not more, by using remote-control.
