LEGO Projects
at the
Beginning of Fall 2001
The LEGO 24 Hours CITY
at Nick J. Rahall, II
Appalachian Transportation Institute
Fall 2001 has started with the City being connected from Spring
Hill and Davis Creek Elementary.
Summer brought many changes to the CITY as it was readied for the
ATI dedication.
Two
Marshall University students have worked on readying the SENSORS site.
Programs
on the CITY in August.
In the school year there will be many more workshops such as at Bluefield
State College and WV
Tech.
Some will focus on transportation.
The camera on the CITY for the Red Rover program is on a shelf above
the monorail.
The Principal of Spring Hill Elementary teleoperated the CITY Wednesday
September 5, 2001.
The students there will be working on building and programming using
RoboLab.
They have the Red Rover software and can set up projects to teleoperate
from Spring Hill.
They will be able to do both the SENSORS CITY side and the Red Rover
side.
On the Davis Creek Red Rover, USER PROGRAMS 1 and 2 make sounds
in the classroom.
It is set up so that you can let the students know that you would
like to send a message and teleoperate the rover.
At the AppaLEGO
CITY the car can be started by clicking program 2.
These programs can be changed. Watch for new configurations.
