Mission 10: Make A Routine

Big Question

How can a robot remember a sequence of actions?

Your Mission

Create a short routine for your robot brain. A routine is a planned sequence that can be repeated.

Parts

Use parts from earlier missions:

• LED
• display or matrix
• one sensor if you want a trigger

Plan

Choose three to five steps.

Example:

1. Show READY.
2. Blink twice.
3. Wait for a hand nearby.
4. Show GO.

Build

Keep the wiring tidy and use only the modules your routine needs.

Label the input and output in your notes.

Connect

1. Press **Connect**.
2. Test each action separately.
3. Run the full routine.

Success Check

• Your routine has at least three steps.
• The steps happen in the correct order.
• You can restart the routine and get the same result.

Debug

If the routine goes wrong:

• Write the steps as a numbered list.
• Test step 1 only, then step 1 and 2, then step 1 to 3.
• Add a pause between actions so you can see what happens.

Remix

Make two routines:

• greeting mode
• warning mode

Switch between them using a sensor or message.

Robot Brain Idea

Sequences make robots useful. A robot vacuum, traffic light, or factory arm all follow routines made from small steps.
