Robot Base Configuration for Physical and Virtual LEGO EV3

For this section, the EV3 driving base with the Ultrasonic Sensor is required.

Configuration Requirements

If you are using Robot Virtual Worlds, choose the EV3_REMBOT configuration in the Robot Configuration Model Type window. Do this by selecting the Robot drop-down list from the menu bar, then click Motors and Sensors Setup.

If you are using a physical robot, you must have the model constructed. Follow the building instructions for the REM Bot. The instructions are included in the LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 kits.
