The general setting of the Mars-mission has been described in the introduction. The overall goal of the Mars-mission can be described as

Program the Mars-rover in order to find out if there exists water on Mars. If water is found perform measurements to find out its state.

A description which is more applicable to the course and the setup as shown in Fig. 2.1 is

Write software for the Mars-rover such that it finds the three lakes, measures the temperature of the water and sends the outcome to the earth computer.

This goal can be divided into several subgoals

  • Getting familiar with the LEGO working environment.
  • Learn the C programming language.
  • Design of the software architecture.
  • Programming of the mission software.
  • Completion of the mission.

At the end of the course the Mars-mission will be performed by all groups in a final contest.
