Robot Dances Exploring Computer Science Lesson 6-10
Dancing Robots • Task: • Build a robot that dances to music for 1-2 minutes. • Requirements: • Dance must be 1-2 minutes long. • The robot must stay in the marked space. • The robot must be autonomous. Other than hitting the start button, no human can touch it while it performs. • The dance should be choreographed to the music you provide. The music must be appropriate for playing at school—no obscenities, etc. • Teams may restart the robot up to 2 times . • Teams are encouraged to be as creative and entertaining as possible! Props, costumes, and varied dance moves are encouraged. You may dance alongside your robot.
Stuck for a Song Choice? • I have these songs cropped to about a minute: • Billie Jean (1:23) – Michael Jackson • I Will Survive (1:14) – Gloria Gaynor • In the Mood (1:04) – Glenn Miller • Thriller (1:13) – Michael Jackson • YMCA (1:15) – Village People
Additional Extra Credit • You can receive an additional 25 extra credit points if you work with another team and coordinate a dance using a Bluetooth connection. • If you do this you will need to rename your robots. Change the name to EV3-YourKitNumber
Code to Link Robots • Sending robot code: • Receiving robot code: Send a text message Title: part1 To: EV3-2 Message: go Wait to receive a text message Title: part1 Message: go
When is this due • Dances will be performed Wednesday, June 6th orThursday, June 7th.
Process • Brainstorm ideas about how your robot should look, how it should work (will you use the medium motor?) and how you’ll build it. Select music. • By the end of class today – write down your team and the name of your song and give it to me. • Have your song cropped to 2 minutes or less • Start building your robot. The base cannot change! • Build a program that directs the robot to do your dance moves. • Test and revise the program. Make sure it runs for 1-2 minutes! Make sure it matches the music!Make sure it won’t fall apart! MAKE SURE IT STAYS WITHIN THE ALLOTTED AREA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! • Show off the robot during the dance in class.
