In this semilab, students will build and program robots using a LEGO NXT set. They will divided into teams of 2-3 students; each team had to build and program their own robot using RobotC, a C-like programming language. As in the previous year, we will build a robot capable of navigating a maze.
Actual results 2014:
This semilab was quite successful; most teams were able to program the robot in RobotC to find its way out of the maze using the wall follower algorithm. We didn't have time to program more complicated algorithms, such as the Pledge algorithm.
