Instructions

The code below should turn a light on upon a clap, if the lights are off. It should also turn them off on a clap, it the lights are on.

Instructions

Start the Edison driving forward until it drives under a table or similar type of area where the light is less than where it started. When it reaches a dark area, make it go backwards into the light.

Instructions

Have the Edison drive from Point A (Start) to Point B (Finish) with an obstacle in between the points. After completing, add two more obstacles and have the Edison avoid them.

Instructions

Complete the following steps one at a time, make sure to test your Edison after each step.

Step 1 – Basic movement

• Program Edison to drive forward.
• When it detects an obstacle, it should stop.

Step 2 – Avoid the obstacle

Modify the program so that when an obstacle is detected:

• Edison moves backwards 10 cm
• Turns left
• Then continues driving forward.
• Repeat for each obstacle Edison detects.

Step 3 – Add a visual signal

When Edison detects an obstacle:

• Turn on the LEDs for 1 second
• Then perform the same actions as before (reverse, turn, continue driving).

Step 4 – Make the robot smarter

Instead of always turning left:

• Edison should randomly turn left or right after reversing.
• Then continue driving until another obstacle is detected.
