mBot 2.0: A Network Game

In this lesson, students will learn about LAN or Local Area Network and how they work. The mBot2, with its built-in WIFI module, automatically establishes a network connection as soon as there are multiple mBot2 or CyberPi in the same room within a 30-meter radius. Students will learn how the mBot2 and CyberPi can communicate with each other and execute commands over this network connection.

mBot 2.0: At Your Service

In this lesson, students will learn that speech recognition is the technology that converts the spoken word (but also entire sentences) back into text. It is a quiet computational task to recognize even a single word just by the variation in frequency. Students will learn the practical uses of speech recognition and how it is part of the user interaction in consumer electronics (like smartphones, TVs, smart home) and for assistive systems. In this activity, students will program a short dialogue with the mBot2 acting as a service robot.

mBot 2.0: Careful Driving

In this lesson, students will learn about gyroscopes and how it measures tipping movements and more precisely the speed of turning/tipping movements. Students will learn about accelerometers measuring the change in velocity and how both sensors provide different information about the position in space. Students will learn how to calculate mBot2's position in space using gyroscope and accelerometer sensor data.

mBot 2.0: In the Wild

In this lesson, students will learn about Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Artificial Intelligence refers to devices or machines that mimic human intelligence. Students will learn that based on collected data, Machine Learning enables computer or robot systems to choose actions based on history of data and probability without the need to explicitly formulate an algorithm for it.

mBot 2.0: Let's Move!

In this lesson, students will learn that robots are autonomous machines that replace human effort; they can perceive their environment and perform computer programs to make decisions and take actions. A computer program is a set of instructions and conditions run by a computer to perform a task. Students will learn that robots can take many different shapes and have different capabilities depending on their context. For example, robots are present in households, such as the vacuum cleaner robot or a lawn mowing robot; you can also find them in factories assembling products and even sent robots to other planets.

mBot 2.0: Listen to mBot 2

In this lesson, students will learn that robots can often communicate. For example, the vacuum cleaner robot that uses a voice message to let you know its battery is low, or a toy robot that sings a song. Students will learn that the mBot2 can also produce and record sound through its microphone and speaker.

mBot 2.0: Seeing with Sound

In this lesson, students will learn that autonomous robots need to be aware of their surroundings when driving unattended to avoid any collisions with obstacles or persons. Students will learn that the mBot2 has a specific sensor for this action at the front and it is called the ultrasonic sensor. Students will learn that this sensor enables the robot to detect objects in its path using sounds that humans can’t hear – giving it the name (ultrasound).

mBot 2.0: Sensing & Data Collection

In this lesson, students will learn that robots can be used in research. A robot has several sensors (senses) with which it can perceive its surroundings and also collect data. Students will learn how the mBot 2 measures sound and temperature and how to read the data on the screen of the mBot2 and use it for research into sound density or the temperature of the classroom.

mBot 2.0: Sightseeing

In this lesson, students will learn how to transform mBot2 into a touring car, communicating every sight seen along the way, through very popular actions such as line following and colour sensing.
