Programming EV3 Sensors Concepts

Miss Tahino from Messino's Lego Robotics presents a tutorial on programming the EV3 ultrasonic and touch sensors. The video is a response to a request from Paul in Ghana. It covers the setup and programming of these sensors to make a robot respond to touch and distance. The tutorial includes step-by-step instructions using the Lego Mindstorms EV3 software, demonstrating how to make the robot back up when the sensors are triggered. The video concludes with encouragement to explore the capabilities of EV3 sensors.
