SAMPLE PROGRAM FOR THE TUNDRA EXPLORER
The tundra explorer is able to use its ultrasonic sensor to navigate obstacles. Set up an obstacle course using objects
like books and toys in a long hallway for the tundra explorer to navigate through. When the program is run, the
tundra explorer will move forward until its ultrasonic sensor detects an object. In response, the program will stop
the motors, and then run the motors again in the reverse direction, backing the tundra explorer away from the object.
The program will then turn one motor off momentarily, turning the tundra explorer. The tundra explorer will then
turn both motors on so that it moves forward in a new direction.
This program is preloaded in the app under Program 24. Test it out and write down how the robot behaves for each
program segment below.
