Game Robotics for Young Programmers and Designers: mBot and mBlock

The book is based on the experience of working with children in grades 3-8 and is dedicated to creating gaming projects with mBot robots and compatible devices based on Arduino controllers. As the book progresses, the complexity of the gaming... projects increases, opening up an incredibly exciting world of modern robotics to the reader. It discusses the device, assembly, and control of robots via smartphones and tablets. Special attention is given to programming in the mBlock environment, which is based on the well-known Scratch environment, for the autonomous operation of robots and games with them. It considers ways to enhance the capabilities of the basic robot model using extensions and add-ons from Makeblock and compatible third-party electronic components with Arduino.
