Microsoft MakeCode for LEGO MINDSTORMS Education EV3 – Microsoft MakeCode.

Today we are incredibly happy to announce MakeCode for LEGO MINDSTORMS! This is the culmination of months of engineering, design and user testing work we’ve been doing with our good partners over at LEGO Education.

The LEGO MINDSTORMS system brings technology and computer science to life with hands-on, project-based learning using best-in-class robotics solutions. And now with MakeCode support, students can use easy drag-and-drop block coding, or JavaScript text programming from a browser to make their EV3 robot escape from a maze, detect different colored objects, or turn into a musical instrument.

As well as being able to program the EV3 brick using the screen, sounds and buttons, the LEGO MINDSTORMS Education EV3 Core Set also comes with a variety of different sensors and motors that can be programmed, including a touch sensor, color sensor, ultrasonic sensor, infrared sensor, gyro sensor, and large and medium motors.
