Lesson: EV3 - "Move until Near"

Overview: 
The goal of this lesson is to explore the use of the EV3 ultrasonic sensor and understand the parameters of the Wait-for-Distance block. Students will work through the "Moving until Near" video lesson from the EV3 Trainer product from Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Academy.
Objectives: 

Students will be able to:

1. Write an EV3-G program for a robot to respond to the ultrasonic sensor

2. Control the response of a robot through the EV3-G Wait-for-Ultrasonic-Sensor block parameters

3. Explain the role of each parameter in the Wait-for- Ultrasonic Sensor block configuration panel
