MiiRo Bot

Robot and App Getting Started Guide

Hello! And congratulations on taking the first step in

future-proofing yourself for the Fourth Industrial

Revolution (4IR)! This document will take you

through everything you need to know about getting

started on your journey! So without further ado, let's

dive in! :)

Assembling your Robot

As you may have noticed, your robot comes disassembled. Therefore, the first step is building

your robot. You can find the assembly instruction manuals in the Robot Support tab in the

MiiCode mobile app. Download and follow the easy step-by-step instructions to get started!

MiiRo Bot Control Board

Now that your robot is assembled, let's dive in and have a closer look at your MiiRo Bot Control

board. This section outlines all the different components on the control board and how they

function.

Bluetooth Module

Power Switch

The Bluetooth Module power switch is used to turn Bluetooth functionality on and off. During

normal operation, when using your MiiRo Robot with the MiiCode mobile app, this switch should

always be set to the ‘On’ position.

The Bluetooth module should only be turned off when uploading new firmware onto the control

board.

Connection Indicator

The Bluetooth Connection Indicator is a green light. It shows the connection status of the

Bluetooth Module. A flashing connection indicator means the Bluetooth Module, and therefore

your robot is not connected to any device. A steady connection indicator means that the

Bluetooth Module, and your robot, is successfully paired with a device!

Power

On/off Switch

The Power On/Off Switch is used to turn your robot on. It should be noted that the switch must

be in the off position when charging the robot.

Power Indicator

The Power Indicator light shows whether the robot is turned on or not. When the robot is

powered on, and the Power On/off switch is in the on position, this light will be steadily on.

When the robot is powered down, either when the Power On/off switch is in the off position or

when the battery has been fully depleted, this light will be off.

Charging

Battery Input

The Battery Input Connector is used to connect the rechargeable Lithium Polymer (LiPo) battery

to the robot control board. The LiPo battery must remain connected during operation and

charging.

USB Connector

The USB Connector allows you to plug in a Micro USB cable (typical Smartphone Cable). With a

Micro USB cable, the USB Connector allows for two different functions:

● Charging the rechargeable battery - Connect a Micro USB cable to the USB Connector

and use a Smartphone Charger or Computer/Laptop USB port to charge the battery.

Note that the LiPo battery should remain connected to the Battery Input during charging.

● Uploading new firmware - Connect a Micro USB cable to the USB Connector and

connect the robot to a Computer/Laptop. Using the Arduino IDE, new firmware may be

uploaded to the robot’s control board. This is covered further in an additional guide.

Battery Charge Indicator

The Battery Charge Indicator light indicates when the battery is being charged. While the battery

is charging, the charging indicator will be fully on. When the battery is nearing its full capacity,

the charging indicator will flash. When the charging indicator is fully off, your robot’s battery is

fully charged.

Input

User Input Button

This button accepts user input, by pressing the button and can be programmed and used for

different things within the MiiCode mobile app.

Reset Button

This button is used to reset the program running on the board. Resetting the board puts the

robot in a default, known-state.

Grove (sensor) Input

This connector is used to connect a variety of different sensors as supported by the MiiCode

mobile app. Ultrasonic Distance Sensor, available separately, can be connected to the MiiRo

Bot via the Grove Input connector.

Output

Buzzer

The Buzzer can be used to create sounds of varying tones. It is controlled via the MiiCode

mobile app.

RGB LED

The Red, Green, Blue Light Emitting Diode (RGB LED) is a small light situated on the robot

control board that is capable of displaying various colours. The colour displayed is controlled by

adjusting how much ‘red’, ‘blue’ and ‘green’ light is activated in the diode. This is controlled via

the MiiCode mobile app.

Continuous Motor Connectors

Continuous rotation motors are used to drive your MiiRo Bot. The Motor two motor connectors

are the points where the different motors must be connected. Ensure that you follow the MiiRo

Bot Assembly Instructions such that the Left and Right motors are connected correctly!

MiiCode Mobile App

The MiiCode Mobile App is used to not only interact with your MiiRo Bot but also contains a

wealth of useful information and plenty of features that will aid you on your journey through the

wonderful world of robotics!

Main Screen and Menu Items

This section details the Main Screen of the Mobile App and explores the various Menu Item

options available.

Code Blocks

The MiiCode App uses a block-based programming language. This means that you construct

programs for your robot by connecting different blocks together. All the available code blocks

are contained in these sections. Simply drag the desired blocks from the Code Blocks menus

onto the Work Area. Using these blocks, you can build interesting programs that will make your

MiiRo Bot perform some amazing actions.

Bluetooth Connection

Tap this icon to navigate to the Bluetooth Connection page. The Bluetooth Connection icon will

turn blue when your robot is successfully paired with your smart mobile device.

Save Code

Tapping this icon will allow you to save any code you are currently busy assembling. You will be

prompted to give your project a name. Tapping on this icon again after already first saving your

code will save any changes you made since the last save.

Execute Code / Play Button

After you’ve assembled a program with code blocks in the Work Area, you can run your code on

your robot by tapping the Play Button. After tapping the Play Button, your code is sent to your

robot continuously, in real-time! This means that you can make changes and see the results

instantly.

After tapping the Play Button, it changes to a Stop Button. Tapping this will stop the sending of

your code to your robot.

Open Controller

Tapping the controller icon will open the Controller Screen. This screen contains a controller

with various buttons that you can program to achieve different results. You can program these

buttons but using blocks from the “Controller” code blocks section.

Refresh Coding Screen

There may be times when you'd like nothing more than a fresh start. Tapping this icon will

refresh the entire app. However, with great power, comes great responsibility: tapping this icon

will cause everything to be reset to the default state. This means that you’ll lose any unsaved

code still present in the Work Area and you’ll also lose connection to your robot. Ensure that you

saved any code you wish to keep before using this button.

App Menu

Tapping the Menu Button will open up the App Menu. This menu provides access to a whole

range of other features!

The Login Page allows you to register and log into the MiiCode app to unlock the full potential of

your MiiCoding experience. While much of the functionality is available without logging you, you

won’t be able to save any code that you’ve created.

MiiCode (Home)

The MiiCode menu item will return you to the Main Screen and Work Area.

Bluetooth

Selecting the Bluetooth menu item opens that same page as tapping the Bluetooth Connection

Icon in the Main Screen. This page allows you to search for and pair with your robot. Ensure

your robot is turned on and that the Bluetooth Module is powered on. Then, select ‘Search BLE

Devices’ and wait for your MiiRo’s unique name to pop up.

All MiiRo Bot names are in the form miiroABCD where ABCD is the unique serial number of

your robot. This serial number can be found in the box or on the control board.

Once found, select your MiiRo Bot Bluetooth Device from the list to begin pairing A connection

successful indicator will pop up once your robot is successfully connected to the MiiCode app!
