Programming Further Exploration Working with mBlock--Hack the Physical World The Starter Robot Kit support mBlock perfectly which allow you reprogramming your robot by simply drag and joint the blocks of mBlock. No more difficult coding. mBlock is a free modified version of Scratch 2.0 developed by MIT Media Lab, mBlock add some hardware-related blocks in the original Scratch, with these blocks, users can read sensors, control motors and even a whole robot.
Electronic Modules on Makeblock Ultrasonic module works for measuring distance from 3cm to 400cm. Me Sound Sensor can measure the volume.It can used in some sound interactive projects,such as an voice operated switch. Me 7-Segment Display is a display module with four digit tube which can show some data ,such as speed ,time ,score etc. Me Temperature Sensor is a stainless steel tube sensor which is used for measuring temperature. Me RGB LED module contains four programmable RGB LEDs.
