Touch Sensor
The touch sensor is a small piece from the mindstorms kit and it acts as a button.
Color Sensor
The color sensor is a simple piece and is easy to program. It can detect if it is dark or light and the different colors too!
Infrared Sensor
The infrared sensor is not as small of a piece. It would usualy go on front or on top of your robot. It is made to see things so it dose not crash.
Ultrasonic sensor
This final sensor is made to send out mindstorm waves and then they will come back to send info to the mindstorms.
Wait Block
There is also a wait block that controls how long to wait in between each block. It can also make the sensors work.
Loop Block
This loop block is like a 'go forever' block. It repeats every
program inside of it.
