Programming a Robot from Anywhere in the World
Programming a FIRST LEGO League Challenge Robot from Anywhere in the World
This video discusses several ways that FIRST LEGO League teams can collaborate on programming their robot. It then focuses on real-time programming of the robot using Google Remote Desktop along with one of several video conferencing platforms.
Most video conferencing platforms have a screen-share feature and some like Zoom and GoToMeeting have a remote-control feature. Unfortunately, Zoom and GoToMeeting don’t support remote when you use Chromebooks. Fortunately, when Google Remote Desktop is used in conjunction with these platforms teams gets both features in any combination of Mac, Windows PC or Chromebook with Google Meets, GoToMeeting or Zoom. So, this video focuses on using Remote Desktop because it provides both features. The main requirement is the computers must have a recent version of the Firefox, Edge or Chrome browser plus Safari for Mac computers.
