Programming

While building our group's Lego robot, the robot had to be programmed in order for it to know how to do certain tasks. The programming was relatively simple, as most of the tasks were already pre-programmed in the 'intelligent brick.' The user simply had to tell the software the order in which to do these tasks. Depending on the purpose of the robot, the brick could be programmed to follow certain instructions, either put in manually on the brick, or inputted on the computer and then downloaded onto the brick. The tasks could be changed depending on time variations, visual/UV sensor choice, and motion variations.
