Getting Started Guide
What’s next? 
Now that you’ve learned all about Edison’s abilities, sensors and controls you can move on 
to programming him. Go to www.meetedison.com and look for EdBook 2 ‘Your EdVenture 
into Robotics – You’re a programmer’.  In this EdBook you’ll learn how to write your own 
programs to get Edison to do exactly what you want! 
The programs are written using free software called EdWare. You build programs using 
drag and drop icons. Here’s what a simple line tracking program looks like. 
Don’t forget that you can download the free EdMat activity mat in colour or black and 
white. The EdMat is A1 size (59cm x 84cm) and can be printed at your local print shop for 
a small fee. Download from: meetedison.com/downloads
