TRASH PUSHER

Build a robot that can push trash to a safe disposal zone.

Wide Trash Collector

Pile Maker

Super Powerful Pusher

Beginner

Think Like an Environmentalist:

How can you make your robot work with trash of different sizes and shapes?

Think like an Engineer:

How can you make your robot drive easily through different types of spaces?

Modify It

• Try making your robot faster or slower. How does that affect how much trash it can collect?
• The code on the left runs forever. What other kinds of loops can you use?

Code for the Pile Maker

Starts sweeping into a pile when the touch sensor is activated.

CHALLENGE YOURSELF

Can you add a sensor to your robot so it can move towards the trash by itself?

It’s important to make sure your robot is stable.

Try making a steady center point or a fulcrum for the rest of your robot to move around.
