Crickit

What are Crickit microchips?

• Crickit microchips are used along with the CPX microchips because they can control more powerful motors that the CPX could not power by itself.
• They also have the capability of hooking up additional sensors to the Crickit

Crickit Example

• In order to turn the motors on you need to call the function “crickit run motor” for both motors.
• We can run the motor at a percentage (number) that we set inside two variables called ” throttleleft ” and ” throttleright “.
• We can change the value for these variables at different points in the program based on if we want the robot to go forwards, backwards, left, or right
