Let's make it!

We are going to follow the steps in this tutorial to assemble our gaming bot. Look carefully into each of the images and follow the instructions one by one to make this Hoop master gaming bot. The colour of the blocks and parts used in the construction might differ from original, So carefully follow the instruction given below.

1.1 What do we need ?

Given below are the materials required to build the HoopMaster gaming bot.

Explore the essential materials needed to build the HoopMaster gaming bot, a fun and interactive project powered by Roboki. This DIY robotics project utilizes motors, proximity sensors, and various robotic components, making it an ideal activity for young engineers interested in STEM learning, robotics skills development, and creative play.

1.2 How is it made ?

Follow the steps carefully to build the Hoop-master gaming Robot.

1. Take the motor and attach two the pegs as shown below


As part of this DIY robotics project, take the motor and attach two pegs, showcasing the assembly of the interactive robot game, which will enhance STEM learning.


2. Place the 15 by 11 block on a flat surface.  


Place the 15 by 11 block on a flat surface, creating the foundation for the rotating basket game in this engaging robotics project designed for young engineers.


3. Connect the motor to this block as shown in the image.


Connect the motor to the block, demonstrating the crucial setup step for the goal-scoring robot, perfect for hands-on learning in robotics for kids.


4. Once the setup is ready, carefully attach axle 5 to the motor. This creates an extension for mounting the basket to the motor.


Once the setup is ready, carefully attach axle 5 to the motor, creating an extension for mounting the basket in this fun robotics activity focused on interactive play.


5. Take a full bush and place it onto the axle.


Take a full bush and place it onto the axle to secure the components in the DIY hoop game bot, promoting robotics skills development and creative play.


6. Take an 11 by 5 block and slide it onto the axle.


Take an 11 by 5 block and slide it onto the axle, preparing for the next stage of this educational robotics project that fosters hands-on learning.


7. Now, place a full bush on top of the block and onto the axle to secure it properly.


Now, place a full bush on top of the block and onto the axle to secure it properly, ensuring the stability of the motorized game in this STEM robotics activity.


8. Attach a pin connector to this block, as shown in the image.


Attach a pin connector to this block, showcasing the assembly process for the interactive robot game designed to challenge kids in a fun way.


9. Take a Beam 5 and attach two friction pegs to the second and fourth holes of the beam. Then, connect the beam to the pin connector.


Take a Beam 5 and attach two friction pegs to the second and fourth holes of the beam, connecting it to the pin connector for this engaging robotics project.


10. Take the 1 by 6 brick with holes and connect two pegs to the first and last hole of the brick and then attach it onto the 15 by 11 block. This brick is to which the Roboki is to be attached.


Take the 1 by 6 brick with holes and connect two pegs to the first and last hole, then attach it onto the 15 by 11 block for the hoop game bot assembly.


11. Now let us attach the Roboki onto the structure. For this, we will use the brick attached to the robot to secure it in place. Fix Roboki on to the brick by applying pressure.


Now let us attach the Roboki onto the structure, using the brick to secure it in place, vital for the functioning of this fun robotics game.


12. Next we need to connect the proximity sensor to Roboki using the angled port connector as shown below.

Next, connect the proximity sensor to Roboki using the angled port connector, an essential step in creating an intelligent robot that interacts with its environment.


13. Now we must connect the motor to the Roboki. Remember the port to which motor is connected and programme it accordingly. (Refer to “Roboki Session 4")


Now we must connect the motor to the Roboki, ensuring proper programming to enhance the functionality of the goal-scoring robot in this exciting STEM project.


2. SOFTWARE

2.1 Let's Code it!

Now that the design of our Bot is ready, we need to programme it using PLODE to make it a gaming robot. Follow the step by step instruction in the video given below to programme the HoopMaster gaming bot.


3. What Next?
