An Interface to Grab and Lift!

In the User Interface Challenge, you need to program your robot so that a user can use buttons on the brain's screen to pick up a variety of objects.

Your Brain's screen will need to have four buttons:

  • A button for opening the claw
  • A button for closing the claw
  • A button for raising the arm
  • A button for lowering the arm

To complete the challenge you will need:

  • A Clawbot
  • Objects to be picked up: an empty can or water bottle, a VEX cube, an unused piece from the VEX kit, or anything else that your teacher can provide
