PROJECT
5
Penalty time
Join Ester and Daniel as they prepare for the football championship and create a penalty simulation system.
Computational thinking
Ester designed a prototype of an automatic penalty stopper that keeps track of the goals scored. Additionally, she created an animated simulation to demonstrate how it would work. To do this, she programmed a character to stop shots on goal.

Maker moment
Let's build a penalty stopper!
It’s time to create our own penalty stopper! To do this, we will use the joystick and the servo motor.
Open step-by-step assembly
Components
These are the components that are used in the project, learn how they work.

SENSOR
Joystic
Measures horizontal and vertical movement.
ACTUATOR
Servo motor
Moves in a range of 0 to 180 degrees
Let's program!
Access the Robots platform to program your penalty stopper. In the first challenge we will program the movement angles of the servo motor, in the second challenge we will program the joystick to control the movement.
