The BlocklyProp online tool is the S3 robot’s primary programming environment. Its interlocking blocks with readable text let beginners build programs in an intuitive, visually logical way. The BlocklyProp tool exposes the S3’s encoders to provide control over distance and speed for all possible types of movement. Pre-made blocks support all of the S3 robot’s sensors, motors. In addition, blocks are included for select accessories that plug into the S3’s Hacker Port. Customize your S3 by connecting a Parallax Standard Servo, PING))) Ultrasonic Distance Sensor, or even an XBee RF module if you are an adventurous hacker willing to open the case. Those who know the original S1 and S2 may also appreciate the S3 GUI for Windows as an easy transition for existing Scribbler curriculum.   Both graphical programming tools reveal the underlying text-based code—C for BlocklyProp and Spin for the Scribbler GUI—for advanced users.\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"forte\"\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree BlocklyProp graphical online programming on Chromebook, Windows, and Mac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully assembled with a durable shell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 pre-programmed play modes let your Scribbler interact with you, right out of the box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in sensors for line following, light seeking, object avoidance, and stall sensing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDC motors with encoders allow for detailed scribbling, maze navigation, and distance control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated pen port fits standard Sharpie pens or Board Dudes SRX Dry Erase Markers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeaker plays robot-generated musical notes and sound effects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHacker Port gives access to 5 digital I\/O pins, two analog pins, 3.3V, 5V, and ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilicone o-ring tires provide good traction without leaving marks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eS3 Li-Po Battery and Programming\/Charging Cable included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"forte\"\u003eApplication Ideas:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTEAM programs combining art with robotics technology and math\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfter-school robotics clubs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobotics and programming competitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rotforte\"\u003eSHIPPING: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rotforte\"\u003eLithium batteries are shipped via UPS only; restrictions apply by country.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"field-body\"\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"forte\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan class=\"forte\"\u003eScribbler 3 (S3) Robot Specifications:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcessor: Multicore Propeller P8X32A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight sensors: 3 phototransistors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLine sensors: 2 infrared emitter\/receiver pairs, unmodulated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eObject sensors: 2 alternating infrared emitters and one receiver, modulated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStall sensors: Motor current monitor, and drive wheel\/tail wheel rotation comparison\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheel diameter: ~ 8 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrive wheel encoder resolution: 507.4 counts per revolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower requirements: 3.7 V; 4000 mAh Li-Po battery, included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommunication: Serial over USB to computer, cable included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 7.4 x 6.25 x 3.2 in (188 x 158.8 x 81 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range:+50 to +104 °F(+10 to +40 °C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\nSee the S3 Open Source Design Files for further information\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"field-body\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"forte\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"field-body\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"forte\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"forte\"\u003eNotes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e Read and follow all directions in the S3 Info Poster, including battery and safety information.
