Program a Robot at The Loop!

Image
Here's your chance to create a program on an Arduino robot, and make a movie of the robot doing the code! The best movies will be used to promote our upcoming Hour of Code activities in December! Here is our robot running some code. My idea was to make her arms move quickly and her eyes blink out of sync, and then have her arms slow down and her eyes get into sync and blink more and more slowly.  As you can see, my movie needs a lot of work. I need to give credit for the sources I used for my code, give it a title, maybe add music... what else? A voice over? What code would you like to run? What movie would you make? I will put the robot in The Loop, so that students can enter their own code to change the robot's behavior, and then record the robot running the code. To develop your own code, you can download the Arduino software here . You can find tutorials and even learn how to hack the Arduino here . I have also made a Git Repository here where you can share ...
