Robotics¶
Material for the robotics lesson, where you teach a rover to learn its way around an exoplanet grid, with an AI co-pilot.
Worksheet¶
Additional material¶
Extra resources for the lesson, and ready-made code in case you get stuck.
Write and flash your code at python.microbit.org
All the code for this lesson — calibration, the RL grid, and the Cutebot — is written and flashed to the micro:bit at python.microbit.org. That's where you paste or upload any of the files below.
Calibrate your rover¶
- cutebot.py — required library; add this to your micro:bit project before your own code.
Q values simulation¶
A notebook with pictures and a simulation of how Q values evolve throughout learning.

RL grid on the micro:bit¶
The .hex and .py files below are ready to flash and use directly on
the micro:bit — you don't need to write this code yourselves if you get
stuck.
- Code to annotate (RL grid)
- RL_leds_3x3.hex — ready to flash straight onto the micro:bit at python.microbit.org.
- RL_grid_BACKUP_SOLUTION.py — ready to paste directly into your micro:bit project.
Cutebot¶
- cutebot.py — required library; add this to your micro:bit project before your own code.
- RL_cutebot.hex — ready to flash straight onto the micro:bit.
- RL_cutebot.py — ready to paste directly into your micro:bit project.
