Goal: Everyone needs a pet, but not everyone can have a live one. Make a WeDo pet instead. Use a WeDo sensor and motor to make the pet respond to you in some way. A puppy that wags its tail? A kitten that comes when you call it? A tarantula that twitches when it sees food? Create the pet you’d love to have. In your submission, be sure to tell us your pet’s name!
Start date: January 1, 2015
Due date: January 31, 2015
Rules: Use a WeDo motor and a sensor to make a pet that responds in some way. You can only use the sensors and motors from the WeDo kit. However, you are welcome to use multiple WeDo kits, additional LEGO pieces, and non-LEGO materials. Tips for using WeDo motors can be found here: Design for Motion. For tips on using sound with the WeDo program, check out this snippet: Programming Sound.
