Baby Steps.


Now that you have had a chance to program your robot using a computer, what was the hardest part of using the Mindstorm software?

Was it easier to program your robot with the computers or just using the robot's 'brain'?

Were you able to make your robot do what you wanted?

Comments:
the hard thing was the kicker to put on the robot.the easy thing was the head.
 
It was so easy to program them on the lap tops and easier to program them just by there brain only their brain.
 
the hardest part was when you had to put the lag on the robot beacuse you had to attach lots of things to the leg.
 
my robot did almost everything i wanted.
 
The hardest thing was on the IBM comtuter it got so wheard and i was so happy because it was fun
 
the computer was the easist thing
 
MY HARDEST TING WAS THAT DOWNLOADING BECAUSE WE HADE TO MUCH THINGS! NO I DID NOT GET TO DO WHAT I WANNED TO DO!!
 
It was hard waiting for it to download. Was it hard for you? My partner and I had to wait for the laptop to start up. The minds storm soflware was hard we had to get a teacher to help us.

IT WAS REALLY HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
It was easier to program it on the brain.
 
The hardest part for the computer is that we had to go back and fore with the program I also had problems with the loop to loop. the most easy thing to do is programing the brain because the brain had the most fun on it.
 
i think it hardest to make it do two things at once but don't get me wrong it was easy
 
It was kind of hard working with the Mindstorm software on it because they were different laptops!

It was easier with the other laptops.

YES! we did get some of the things we wanted on are robots.
 
Programming the robots brains were cool. The hardest part was downloading all the things into the robot. It was much easier just programming the robots. I did not get to program every thing I wanted to but we downloaded some cool stuff.
 
it was easier using the robots brain i liked it so much i want to do it again
 
It was easier to program it on the computer beause you had to move things.The robots did what I wanted to do I wanted it to say something.
 
The robot did every thing i programed it to do.
 
me and my partner was programing the robot and it was very easy
 
WHAT WAS THE HARDEST THING THAT YOU AND YOUR PARTNER DID??!!
 
The robot did every thing i programed it to do.
 
The hardest part of using the robot software was to slide and drag the other icons into the loop. The program on the computer was easier because it gave you more options and i found it a bit hard to just use the robots brain.No i never made my robot do what i wanted it to do, but i made my robot have an image on the front of it, also i got my robot to say different words.
 
was figuring out what the wires ment did and which did connect. I found that it was easier on the computer. Yes i was able to make my robot do what i wanted
 
ya i was able to do what i wanted to do
 
The hardest part about going on line MindStorms software is that a error sigh is always coming on when I put a USB cable in the laptop and the robot.

It wasn't easy to program the robot on the laptop and the robot's brain was more easy because you can just look on the robot on NXT program and it's super easy.

Yes it is able to do what I wanted.
 
It was hard to program the robot when I was trying to find the file name on the robot. Yes using the computer yes to make the robot do what i wanted.
 
Yes. It was easier to program the robot using laptops. The hardest part using the Mindstorm software is putting then movement in the loop.
 
both were easy but it was easyer to use the brain but don't get me wrong it was is to use the lap top to
 
2 The computer 3 yes
 
No I could not make it do what I wanted it to do.
It was easyer to do it on the lap top.
The hardest part was doing the loop.
 
I found none of it to hard.

It was easier just using the robots brain.

No I was not able to make my robot do what I wanted.
 
it was very easy for me and my partner i wasn't all i wanted but who cares it had a heart not a face and me and my partner named it snow ball its a funny name
 
The hard part was when we had to go to Mind Storm and downloading.
 
me and my patenr had a good day.
 
Sounds like the 'bots are busy. I'm wondering if Shorty still thinks that it is easier to program the NXT block or if it is easier to use the computer?

Also, has anyone figured out the light or colour sensors? Can you make the robot follow a line on the ground - like a tape strip or one of the coloured lines on the gym floor?
 
Building the robot was lots of fun.
 
ignite cam is over.
 
I loved IGNite a lot!!

IGNITE CAMP IS OVER!!! everything is gonna be back to normal
