1. SimBots Introduction
This section will help you get oriented with the activities and software for this camp.
Start Activity
2. Lines and Turns
*** Coming Soon! *** Follow the attached instructions to write a program which makes use of the basic movement commands for the bot.
Start Activity
3. Circles and Arcs
You've moved in straight lines, now it's time to curve! This activity will introduce you to some of the ways to make curved lines.
Start Activity
4. Triangle
After the circles, going back to lines should be... straight-forward. Dredge up your memories of triangles, and get ready to make some acute shapes.
Start Activity
5. Star
Similar to a triangle... but more pointy. This activity will make use of loops to begin to automate the bot's process.
Start Activity
6. Initials and Logos
Time to put the basics to the test! Use what you've learned of lines, arcs, and automation to get complicated.
Start Activity
7. The Spiral
Round, and round, and round it goes. It doesn't stop until the simulator runs out of memory, or your processor locks up. More loops to push your hardware!
Start Activity
8. Spirograph
Good thing robots don't get dizzy easily. Make use of loops and good ol' geometry to generate some mathematical patterns.
