Get to know the Ino-Bot
Look at an Ino-bot together and find the:
distance sensors
LED lights
light sensor
speaker
headlights (white LEDS)

Which are inputs and which are outputs?
Unlike Beebots, these bots are controlled using code in Scratch (on a PC) or Blockly (on Android or iPad).
Turn your bot on with the two switches on its bottom.
Load the Ino-bot app on your iPad and click start.
Click the Bluetooth tab in the top right hand corner.
Select the name of your bot.
the LED lights will flash green to show you are connected.
Programming the LED Lights
Programming the LED Lights
Each LED light has a number. They can glow red, blue or green (RGB). Using different amounts of red, blue and green light you can make many other colours, a bit like mixing paint.
Enter this code then click GO.
What happens?
Look at the program you have created and work out what each piece of code is doing.
Why do you need to 'wait 1 second' between each light change?
How many different colours can you make?
How can you make all the lights flash at the same time?
Make your bot into a Police car with blue flashing lights and white flashing head lamps.
Use 3 of the lights to make the traffic light sequence.
