1,) Speed and Time

     In our Sphero investigation for speed and time we learned how to create a macro to make the sphero move forward. This gave us basic information on how the sphero and the app work together as a pair to create a control system. We created our macro by clicking on the roll option and increased speed to 10% and got it to move for three seconds by adding 3000 to the drag option. this taught us how the macros work all together to create the rest of this project.
                       
 2.) 3-D Shapes

     In this investigation segment we learned how to use the roll and rotate option to create 3-D shapes. We created this macro to make a triangle and later a pentagon. We created a triangle by first clicking the add macro button and named it ,"Triangle". After this we added the roll, stop, and rotate commands. This was a hard macro but me and the group managed. This investigation showed us how to use the basic command roll and rotate together in harmony to get the ball to do what we want it to.
