1.Lesson 1: Your First Move
Press Forward to move the robot toward the green target.
Steps:
- 1.Find the "Movement Controls" panel on the right.
- 2.Press "↑ Forward" 7 times to move toward the green target ahead.
- 3.Watch the robot move in the 3D view. The status bar shows when you arrive.
✓ Success: Robot reaches the green target marker.
💡 Hint: The target is directly ahead (North). Press Forward 7 times — each press moves 0.5m.
2.Lesson 2: Turn and Move
Turn the robot to face a different direction, then move it to the target.
Steps:
- 1.The target is to your East (right side of the arena). You must turn to face it first.
- 2.Press "← Turn Left" 4 times — each press rotates 22.5°. Four presses = 90°, which rotates the robot to face East (right side of the arena).
- 3.Now press "↑ Forward" 6 times to reach the green target.
✓ Success: Robot reaches the target after turning at least once.
💡 Hint: Turn Left 4 times (= 90°, facing East), then Forward 6 times. Turn Left = rotating toward East.
3.Lesson 3: Navigate Around an Obstacle
Go around the red obstacle to reach the target. Hitting it means failure.
Steps:
- 1.The target is at the far corner. The direct path is blocked — you must go around.
- 2.Turn Left 4 times to face East. Move Forward 6 times to reach x=3.
- 3.Turn Right 4 times to face North. Move Forward 6 times to reach the target.
✓ Success: Robot reaches the target without hitting any obstacle.
💡 Hint: Go East first (Turn Left 4×, Forward 6×), then North (Turn Right 4×, Forward 6×). Obstacles are placed away from this path.
4.Lesson 4: Build and Run a Command Queue
Plan your full route using the Command Builder, then execute it in one go with Play Queue.
Steps:
- 1.Find the "Command Builder" panel on the right. Add commands by clicking the buttons (↑ Forward, ← Turn Left, etc.).
- 2.Build this exact sequence: Forward × 7. That's it — target is straight ahead.
- 3.Click "▶ Play Queue" in Movement Controls. Watch the robot execute every command. The queue must run all the way through.
✓ Success: Robot reaches the target by running the full command queue to completion.
💡 Hint: Add 7 Forward commands to the queue, then press Play Queue. The whole queue must finish — do not stop it early.
5.Lesson 5: Queue a Turn-and-Move Route
Use the command queue to program a path that includes turns and forward moves.
Steps:
- 1.Build this sequence in the Command Builder: Turn Left × 4, Forward × 5, Turn Right × 4, Forward × 7.
- 2.Review the list in the queue — all 20 commands should be listed. Turn Left appears 4 times at the start, then 5 Forwards, then Turn Right 4 times, then 7 Forwards.
- 3.Press "▶ Play Queue". Watch the robot turn East, drive East, turn North, drive to the target.
✓ Success: Robot reaches the target by running a queued route that includes turns.
💡 Hint: Turn Left 4× (faces East), Forward 5× (x=2.5), Turn Right 4× (faces North), Forward 7× (z=3.5). Total: 20 commands.
6.Lesson 6: Avoid Obstacles Without Hitting Any
Navigate a multi-obstacle arena to the target — without touching a single obstacle.
Steps:
- 1.An obstacle blocks the path directly ahead. You cannot go straight — you must detour.
- 2.Turn Right 4 times to face West. Move Forward 4 times to clear the obstacle.
- 3.Turn Left 4 times to face North. Move Forward 5 times to reach the target.
✓ Success: Robot reaches the target without hitting any obstacle.
💡 Hint: Forward 2, Turn Right 4× (West), Forward 4, Turn Left 4× (North), Forward 5. Obstacle is at (0, z=2) — the West detour clears it.
7.Lesson 7: Read the Telemetry Sensors
Use the Telemetry panel to guide your robot — watch Front Distance and Target Distance to navigate safely.
Steps:
- 1.Open the Telemetry panel. It shows Front Distance (how far the nearest wall/obstacle is ahead) and Target Distance (how far the target is).
- 2.Before moving, turn until Front Distance is above 3.0. That means clear path ahead.
- 3.Move Forward and watch Target Distance decrease. Stop when it reaches 0 — that's the target. Avoid touching any red obstacle or you fail.
✓ Success: Robot reaches the target without any collisions — using sensors to guide navigation.
💡 Hint: There is no fixed route — use your sensors. Turn until Front Distance is high, then move. Watch Target Distance shrink as you approach the goal.
8.Lesson 8: Full Autonomous Program
Write and execute a complete queued program that navigates the full obstacle course without stopping.
Steps:
- 1.Study the arena — the target is at East-North. The direct North path is blocked.
- 2.Build the full program in Command Builder: Turn Left × 4, Forward × 4, Turn Right × 4, Forward × 4. That is 16 commands total.
- 3.Press "▶ Play Queue". Do not press Pause or Stop — the full queue must run uninterrupted to completion.
✓ Success: Robot reaches the target by running the full 16-command queue without stopping, having turned at least once.
💡 Hint: Turn Left 4× (East), Forward 4× (x=2.0), Turn Right 4× (North), Forward 4× (z=2.0) — robot arrives at target (2,2). All 16 commands must complete.
