Starter Rover V2
Focus: Mechanical foundations and basic logic.
- Hardware: Cardboard or 3D-printed chassis, DC motors, and a simple microcontroller (e.g., micro:bit V2).
- Key Concepts: Structural stability, wheel-and-axle mechanics, and basic coding algorithms.
- Core Activities:
- The Straight Path: Program the rover to move forward and backward using precise wheel rotations.
- Geometric Shapes: Write code to make the rover drive in a perfect square or circle.
- Mars Mission: Navigate a "Martian terrain" manually or through a pre-programmed sequence to avoid physical obstacles.
