Week of 2021-05-09:  Line-Following Robots


Background

Robots are all around you.  Many factories use robots to perform tasks that are too dangerous, too hard, or too tedious for humans.

Watch this video of a German warehouse that uses line-following robots to move items around the factory.
​

Activities

This week you will learn how to program an Ozobot line-following robot.  You do not need to programming the robot to follow lines; that was done by the programmers at Evollve when the Ozobots were made.  However, you can program the robots to speed up, slow down, and turn a certain direction at intersections.  To do this you will use special color codes which Ozobot is programmed to recognize. 

​See if you can make Ozobot do each of the actions below!
