In a previous post (see "Programming mBot with App Inventor 2") I've explained how to use a low level communication API (called Orion) to control a robot, called mBot, using App Inventor.
I've discovered a recently extension provided by MakeBlock in order to program mBot from App Inventor: http://learn.makeblock.com/en/use-mbot-with-app-inventor/
Using this extension is much more simple than programming via Orion. An extension of App Inventor is a new library of visual blocks. So, if you use it, the new blocs will appear as usual ones but in a new category. These blocks, in particular, are high level commands to communicate to a remote mBot (using bluetooth connection). You can send moving commands, read values from sensors and so on.
Please refer to the cited web page for full details. Stay tuned if you want some more working examples that are using this new and interesting opportunity!

Grazie per tutti i tuoi suggerimenti che per me sono stati veramente preziosi.
Colgo l'occasione per segnalare a tutti gli interessati anche il materiale pubblicato da michel marquis su http://michel.marquis1.free.fr/appinventor/, utile e ben fatto.

Grazie a te per il link!
Asking questions are really nice thing if you are not understanding something completely, however this piece of writing offers pleasant understanding yet.
