    (b) The key task you choose should not be significantly related to one of our prior lab activities
    (c) You must effectively use at least external one digital sensor AND either one or more analog sensors or servo motors
  2. Load the code onto a robot, and bring robot, presentation materials, etc. to my office
  3. Give an oral presentation of the purpose of the code and the process you used to create the code (you may use effective handouts, the wiki, or any other tools as part of this discussion). Please create a wiki page linked to your name on the sign-up sheet that you can bring up at the time of your presentation. Feel free to bring a friend. (6 minute 1 minute time limit, with time for me to ask questions and you to answer)

    • Code executes as presents - 35 points
    • Effective use of debugging tools (some should be evident during the demo, others can be described) - 25 points
    • Effective use of lights and buttons to indicate state of robot and to control the robot. - 30 points
      • You may use the CM on/off slide switch ONCE (to start!)
      • You may not touch the Create power button or CM reset button at any time during the demo
      • You should use other buttons to control the robot
      • The demo should be repeatable/resettable without touching the Create power or CM reset buttons or the CM on/off switch
