Electric Dice: robotics project brief

Separate number selection from the display. Test that sample results are within the intended range before connecting an input that triggers a roll.

Rolling a dice

Before you start

A compatible model and the required display, inputs, sensors or actuators. Consult the model repository and instructor before adding parts.

This project brief accompanies an existing CYOBot demonstration. It explains how to plan an experiment; it is not a complete firmware tutorial or proof of a physically validated build for every model.

Use the documented example for your exact hardware as the baseline. Keep logic tests separate from physical tests, and record which results were simulated and which were observed on your robot. Private workspace lessons may provide additional instructions.

Try a small experiment

  1. Check the model and component compatibility in the official documentation.
  2. Separate number selection from the display. Test that sample results are within the intended range before connecting an input that triggers a roll.
  3. Keep a working baseline and change one requirement at a time.
  4. Record the code version, input, expected result, actual result and unresolved faults.

What to record

Document a small electric dice experiment with a clear requirement, observations and limitations.
