What it's about

Learn how to build simple circuits on the cyber:bot robot's breadboard, and then write Python programs to interact with them.  Add LEDs with resistors, and make the LEDs blink. Then add a pushbutton to control the LED, with and without programming.

Before you start

These activities are written assuming you are completing the cyber:bot Prerequisite tutorials first, and then doing the Main tutorials in sequence. For this tutorial you will need:

• Your programming software set up, with your micro:bit ready to use the cyberbot library modules
• A fully built cyber:bot robot
• Resistors, LEDs, and pushbuttons from your robot kit's Small Robot Electronics Pack

After you finish

When you are done with these activities, you will understand how to connect electrical components on a solderless breadboard. You will be prepared to build sensor circuits for your cyber:bot that will allow it to roam around on its own.
