Robotics Workshop

Robotics Workshop:

The Robot Builder’s Toolkit

Robots are mechanical agents controlled by computer programs. They can be

programmed to perform all sorts of tasks and movements. Robots can assemble

cars, play soccer, vacuum floors, deliver packages, map terrain, climb mountains,

entertain people, cook dinner — the list goes on and on. With this kit, you can build

robots that use different sensors to sense their environment. With the app, you can

program the robots’ motors, lights, and speaker to behave in different ways

depending on the data coming from their sensors. First, build the robots in this

manual to learn how everything works, and then design your own robots!
