Manipulation: Module Overview
In this module students will:
Understand the basics of manipulation and its application
Learn how to control their XRP’s robot arm
At the end of this module, students will be able to:
Write a quick program for controlling the robot arm
Implement custom functions for controlling the robot arm
Manipulate their environment using the robot arm
Covered Standards (NGSS and CSTA):
HS-ETS1-2 Break a complex real-world problem into smaller, more manageable problems that each can be solved using scientific and engineering principles.
3A-AP-16 Design and iteratively develop computational artifacts for practical intent, personal expression, or to address a societal issue by using events to initiate instructions.
3A-AP-17 Decompose problems into smaller components through systematic analysis, using constructs such as procedures, modules, and/or objects.
3B-CS-02 Illustrate ways computing systems implement logic, input, and output through hardware components.
3B-AP-10 Use and adapt classic algorithms to solve computational problems.
3B-AP-11 Evaluate algorithms in terms of their efficiency, correctness, and clarity.
3B-AP-15 Analyze a large-scale computational problem and identify generalizable patterns that can be applied to a solution.
3B-AP-16 Demonstrate code reuse by creating programming solutions using libraries and APIs.
