Introduction
Your eXperiBot becomes a serving robot!
Imagine you are in a restaurant. A robot brings plates from the kitchen to the tables. As soon as it reaches a table, it gives a signal, for example a sound. This lets everyone know, “I’m here!” Then it sets down the plates, pauses briefly, and drives back to fetch new plates.
Now it’s your eXperiBot’s turn! Program it to work like a real serving robot: it drives back and forth between two stations, stops briefly at each station, and gives a signal before continuing on its way.
