There is limited complexity that can be achieved within the Wedo app, as it’s designed for simple instructions and getting started. In terms of outputs, the motor can activate, a display can show on your devices screen, or the colour of the light on the smarthub can change. A range of inputs can be used, including from the tilt sensor, motion sensor, noise sensor (from your devices microphone), or from the ‘go’ button. The platform is very simple to use, with blocks aligned side-by-side in the sequence you want your project to execute the instructions. The Lego Wedo 2.0 kit comes with an app for pictorial coding, which lets you get your projects up and running quickly. Get the PDF! Using the Ledo Wedo 2.0 app vs Scratch for coding We’ve put together a full set of instructions for you, so you can follow along step-by-step to build your own. To build the Lego Wedo forklift, you’ll be using the smarthub, motor and tilt sensor. The app is a very big download, just under 500MB, but once you’ve got it installed, it’s very easy to set up and get started. For us, a big benefit of having the project instructions within the app is that they’re all in one place, and they can’t get lost or damaged. The app contains instructions for heaps of Wedo projects, and an image-based coding platform that communicates with the smarthub via bluetooth. As you would expect, it’s compatible with all the standard Lego and Technic components.Īlongside the kit comes the Lego Wedo 2.0 app.

The core kit comes with a smarthub, motor, tilt sensor and motion sensor, plus a range of gears, wheels, axles and bricks to create a wide range of projects. Lego Wedo 2.0 is Lego’s entry-level robotics & coding kit, designed for the education space.
