I
recently received a comment in my Scratch Messages
box from VauHaEs, a Scratcher in
Germany. He liked and complimented one of my shared projects (online at the Scratch web site) so I clicked on
his name to view his profile. There, I was able to view all of the projects he
had uploaded to the Scratch web site and I was immediately intrigued by his line–robot project
Below is a screenshot of line_robot in action. When the green flag is
clicked, an animated robot with two long, stiff arms tracks along the yellow
line.
In
line_robot, both the robot and its control are implemented in software, and
the software is FREE! I think this
might be important to those that would like to ‘get into robots’ but can’t
afford the $200+ cost of a Lego Mindstorms® kit.
I've written a short description of the code VauHaEs wrote for this project. I remixed his project to simply the coding.
You can view and download my remix at this link.
