Programming the micro:bit Robot Buggy for Maze Navigation
In this project, teams work together to program a micro:bit-powered robot buggy to successfully navigate a maze layout. The program development involves testing at different intervals before the final attempt. Participants need to meet the design brief and criteria by programming the BBC micro:bit using either the JavaScript Blocks Editor or Python Editor. Examples of maze-solving programs in both languages are provided to help participants get started. It's time to develop the program and test its functionality.

micro:bit Robot Buggy Programming the Buggy
Maze Route Finish Your robot buggy must successfully navigate the maze layout. Work in your team to program your micro:bit. You will need to test your program at different intervals before your final attempt.
Time to Develop your Program! Time to Develop your Program! Your device must be programmed. Your program must meet the needs of the design brief and the design criteria. You can program your BBC micro:bit using either the JavaScript Blocks Editor or Python Editor. An example program written in each has been given to help get you started. Go to www.microbit.org/code to begin!
Example Program Example Program JavaScript Blocks Editor JavaScript Blocks Editor Go to www.microbit.org/code and open the JavaScript Blocks Editor. Drag the file microbit-robot- jsb.hex onto the work area. This program acts as a simple maze solver by driving the robot forward until it hits an obstacle. It then backs off and turns left a quarter turn before repeating. Test it, download it and experiment with how it works!
Example Program Example Program Python Editor Python Editor Go to www.microbit.org/code and open the Python Editor. Drag the file robot.py onto the work area. This program acts as a simple maze solver by driving the robot forward until it hits an obstacle. It then backs off and turns left a quarter turn before repeating. Test it, download it and experiment with how it works!
