Every turn is a circular motion and we will review the three types of turns from this point of view.
Each palette contains programming blocks that share common purpose. We will cover most of them
How important is it to have predictable behavior in your classes.
How can you be sure your image on the display is seen when the program ends?
We will introduce a convention, an agreement, how and in which cases we are going to use each types of blocks.
Using Display, Sound, Wait and Move blocks together.
How to control the arm of the push bot using the two triggers on the GamePad of the FTC Push Bot?
How to search for an unknown value with the fewest possible tries.
How to make the robot stay idle while the program is still running.
The 90-degree turn of the robot is different from 90-degree turn of the motor!
Explanation and demonstration of the big task for the lesson.
How far will the robot move for one second?
How to keep the discipline in the classroom and how to cheer up the students.
Why we will never use seconds in our lessons.
Let's learn how to use the Sound block.
Pivot turns require fractions of rotations, a number between 1 and 2. Sometimes it is more convenient to use degrees.
In the software, you can change the "move block" to use degrees.
We encourage you to explore the software on your own.
We will show you the most reliable way to turn with your robot.
This is how to use the display block to show images with the EV3 software.
In this tutorial, we are controlling the FTC Tetrix robot with the two sticks of the same GamePad. The left stick is for forward and backwards, while the right stick is for left and right.
We challenge you before we give you the theory: browse in the software and try to achieve the behavior in the video below.
Overview of the big task that we want to achieve in this module.
In this lesson we will program our robot to display emotions!
How to approach that fun relief task.
