Part 1 Objective
Write a program to make the Robotic Ant turn.


Part 2 Preparation
-
Mechanical parts and electronic modules of Robotic Ant
-
USB cable (Type-B) x 1
-
Computer with network access x 1
Follow the building steps to build a Robotic Ant. Install the MegaPi encoder/DC motor drivers on MegaPi, connect the motors to the motor ports on MegaPi by using the motor cables, connect MegaPi to the computer by using the USB cable, open mBlock 5 (PC client or web version), click +add, select Ultimate 2.0 from the Device Library, click Connect, and select the Upload mode.

Part 3 Programming
In Upload mode, when Ultimate 2.0 (MegaPi) starts up, the Robotic Ant stops moving and starts turning left and right 2 seconds later. The Robotic Ant turns left for 3 seconds and then turns right for 3 seconds, and repeats this process.

Part 4 Practice
Try to add moving forward and backward to the program to make the Robotic Ant move forward, backward, left, and right, looking like it is dancing.
