Code Files from the EduCon Conversation

If you do not have the Arduino IDE installed, you can read the following code files with any text editor.

  1. EduCon_Code_TEMPLATE.ino – The Blank Code Template that Guests manipulated. (Scroll down to see the behind-the-scenes code.)
  2. EduCon_Code_KEY.ino – The code file with the “answers”. (Scroll down to see the behind-the-scenes code.)
  3. SensorSandBox.ino – The code that displayed all the sensor data to the Serial Monitor, Serial Plotter, and LCD Screen.
  4. Robot_Test.ino – Code that we used to test that each robot was working properly before the conference.
