Operating the VinciBot
Основни режими
The VinciBot offers three preset modes for immediate play without requiring programming knowledge:
- Line Following Mode: The robot can follow lines drawn on a surface using its built-in sensors.
- Precision Drawing Mode: Insert the washable marker into the designated slot, and the robot can draw precise shapes and patterns based on programmed instructions.
- IR Remote Mode: Use the included remote controller to manually control the robot's movements, play sounds, and activate lights.
