Making it your own

This is the part I love, and I hope you do too. This robot is just the beginning of the fun. It is now time for you to take this framework of the robot build and sample code, to make it unique to your talents and imagination.

Here are a couple of ideas to consider applying to this robot:

  • Add sensors to trigger autonomous robot decisions. For example, could you add a color sensor so that as the claw moves, it is waiting to detect red to stop and pick up the ball and move to another location?
  • Add lights of the light-emitting diode (LED) matrix on the Intelligent Hub to provide insights or cool new looks as the robot operates.
  • Add sound effects to make it sound like an industrial robot.
