3/9/15/ Sphero Investigation

Lesson 1- Time, Speed, and Distances
       In this section we were taught the commands of how to control the speed of the Sphero, how to tell it direction, and how long it should roll. This allowed the Sphero to go farther the more speed you gave it, even if you let it roll the same amount of time at a slower speed.

Lesson 2- Geometry
       In this lesson we learned how to change the color of the Sphero by changing the percentages of color in the command section. We learned that in order to make a shape you had to change the angle by a certain amount each time. For example, a triangle you start at 0 degrees then 90 degrees then 270, making it turn left every time. Using these commands the Sphero created a triangle and changed colors every time it created a new side.
