What you will learn

Assemble a test rig with a motor and several sensors

Understand and apply motor control commands

Use a variable which stores distance to an obstacle

Control motor output using sensor input (i.e. keep constant distance from moving obstacle)

Write functions which move the robot forward a precise number of centimetres

Write functions to control the movement of the robot arm and claw

Program the robot to lift and throw objects

Program the robot with a zig zag line following algorithm

Perform advanced proportional control line following

Use feedback to keep distance from objects, this means the robot slows down gradually avoiding braking and falling over

Use booleans and touch sensor to activate every program with a push of a button once robot is disconnected from the computer

Combine line following and distance control to follow the line up to an object

Integrate arm functions with line following to pick up rubbish along a road

Write a function that scans space

Program the robot to locate, drive up to and pick up objects which are placed at random locations
