Exploring the Z-Axis
In VEXcode V5, follow the steps in this video to add [Linear move] blocks to the project and enter these predetermined coordinates for the first point, and the location above the first point.
- First point: (6, 0, 1.8)
- Location above first point: (6, 0, 3)
Download and run the project. The arm will draw the first point on the whiteboard and then lift the marker up off of the whiteboard.
If your arm did not draw the first point and then lift the marker up off of the whiteboard, notify your teacher.
Once you have finished coding the arm to draw the first point and then lift the marker up off of the whiteboard, stop the project.
In VEXcode V5, follow the steps in this video to add [Linear move] blocks to the project and enter these predetermined coordinates for the location above the second point, and the second point.
- Location above second point: (8, 2, 3)
- Second point: (8, 2, 1.8)
Download and run the project.
After the arm moves to the first point and the location above the first point, it will move to the location above the second point off of the whiteboard, and then move the marker down to second point on the whiteboard.
If your arm did not move to the location above the second point off of the whiteboard, and then move the marker down to second point on the whiteboard, notify your teacher.
Once you have finished coding the arm to move to the location above the second point off of the whiteboard, and then move the marker down to second point on the whiteboard, stop the project and check in with your teacher.
