ROBOLAB

ROBOLAB

ROBOLAB is a programming language developed by Chris Rogers of the Center for Engineering Outreach (CEEO) at Tufts University. It has been popular for LEGO programming for many years.

ROBOLAB

Based on LabVIEW™, from National Instruments, Texas USA, the ROBOLAB Software uses an icon-based, diagram building environment to write programs that control the NXT. ROBOLAB's customized user interface is designed for student users ages 8 and up.

ROBOLAB has progressive programming phases that allow the programming level to match the student's knowledge and skills

ROBOLAB Resources

The Center for Engineering Education Outreach (CEEO) web site has great sample programs and Robobooks, which are tutorials on how to use Robolab and Vernier sensors. The Vernier Sensor Robobook provides a great way to test out sensors and to get familiar with how to use them.
