Inventor is the more advanced ROBOLAB programming phase. Using icons similar to those in PILOT, additional command icons become available as the user moves up through the levels, exploiting the full potential of the RCX.
Inventor is set up in a less structured way as programming icons are selected from the palette and placed in the Program Window. Students create their own programs by wiring different combinations of icons together.
Just like PILOT, Inventor has four programming levels. Each level offers additional commands, offering endless programming possibilities.
Investigator extends the use of the RCX and ROBOLAB to include the creation of experiments that use programming, data logging, computation tools, and documentation.
