C
  • Clawbot:
    The robot build that is used for the STEM Lab. This robot is the result of the first hands-on lesson the students will accomplish. It is used to complete the rest of the STEM Lab activities.
E
  • Events:
    An action or occurrence detected by a program. Events can be based on user actions, such as a sensor input or detecting a specific color signature.
L
  • Loops:
    One of the three building blocks of an algorithm (Sequence, Selection, Iteration). A Sequence is the action performed by the robot; the Selection is the decision to perform the programmed action; and Iteration is the amount of repetition, or loop, of an action.
T
  • Tank Drive:
    Enables the Controller to control the two motor functions of the Clawbot separately.
