SMART ROBOT TASK PERFORMER

Objective: Create an interactive Micro:bit

robot that moves based on tilt and shows its

CAPSTONE PROJECT direction using the LED screen and compass
sensor.

Session 1: Setting Up the Robot with LED Display

Activities:

1. Creating a Robot Using LED Display

Task: Start by creating a robot shape using the Show LED block. Use patterns to display a

simple robot figure (e.g., a face or a basic robot design).

Skills Practiced: Using the Show LED block to create images on the Micro:bit’s screen.
Understanding how to program visuals on the Micro:bit’s grid of 5x5 LEDs.

Outcome: A robot image that appears on the Micro:bit’s screen using the Show LED block.

2. Using the Pause Block to Control Timing

Task: After displaying the robot, add a Pause(ms) block to make the robot’s image appear
for a set duration (e.g., 2 seconds).

Skills Practiced: Using the Pause(ms) block to control the timing of the program. Timing

control in programming to pause between actions.

Outcome: The robot image is shown for 2 seconds, and then the program pauses.

Session 2: Moving the Robot Using Tilt

Activities:
1. Tilt Left to Move the Robot Left

Task: Program the robot to move left when the Micro:bit is tilted to the left. Use the Tilt Left
block to detect this movement.

Skills Practiced: Using the Tilt Left block to control movement. Combining sensor input
with visual feedback (e.g., using the LED screen to show movement).
