Robots are simple machines that are programmed to run automatically. Programmers are the engineers that create step-by-step instructions, or algorithms, that tell robots how to understand and respond to their environment. Start by engineering a simple algorithms, then learn about programming on paper, before you program a “robot” Brownie friend on a device. Create a…

Robotics 1: Programming Robots
Robots are simple machines programmed to run automatically. Programmers are the engineers that create step-by-step instructions, or algorithms, that tell robots how to understand and respond to their environment. Start by engineering a machine that helps a robot to land then learn about the robot brain. After, create programs to instruct your friends before coding…
Robotics 1: Programming Robots
To help you understand how robots work, learn about the parts that make up a robot. Get started with electronics by making a simple sensor, something robots use to function without human operators. Then practice coding robots using important programming concepts like functions and loops. Learn about robots Build a robot part: simple sensors Make…
Robotics 1: Programming Robots
To help you understand how robots work, learn about the parts that make up a robot. Get started by making a simple motorized robot to see how robot parts work together. Then practice coding robots, using important programming concepts, like functions and loops. Learn about robots Build a robot model: motorized robot Explore the way…
Robotics 1: What Robots Do
A robot is a machine that is programmed to move and act. Robots do things we, as humans, can’t or don’t like to do. Robots can be super small to go into small spaces or be built to go places that are too hot or cold for us. They can even go to far away…
