Drive your cyber:bot with the Remote

With the next program, use buttons 1-9 to drive the robot in different directions.  Once you press a button, your robot will drive in that direction until you choose another direction. Press 5 to make it stop.

  • Enter, save and flash IR_Remote_Control.py
  • Put the cyber:bot board’s power switch in position 2, and put the robot on the floor.
  • Point the remote at the IR receiver on the board, and press numbers on the remote to make it drive. Press 5 to make it stop.
