Physical vs. Virtual SPIKE Prime
The Virtual SPIKE Prime robot, just like a physical robot, will perform differently depending on what surface you are driving on (like driving on a wooden floor vs. carpet). The virtual robot will have slightly different values for moving or turning a specific distance compared to a physical robot.
The Virtual Robot Simulation has a built-in sensor dashboard that allows students and teachers to quickly inspect the values the robot sees, speeding up the process of developing and troubleshooting their code.
You will not have to worry about configuring different components on the virtual robot. The virtual robot will already have the correct configurations set to successfully complete each activity!
