Programming Robots

Students in Mr. Ross’ robotics class are working on programming a “macro” that interacts with their Sphero programmable robot.  Upon hitting play with their macro, the Sphero will execute the programmed commands. The students are able to adjust the speed, color, heading, and various other attributes of the robot in order to complete the desired task.  After learning how to program with Sphero, the class will be moving into programming their Sphero through obstacle courses, adding engineering components such as building a bridge with limited materials for their Sphero to cross, and more.
