The main panel

Completion of the first seven lessons in the application unlocks the main panel. The main panel is your command center. From this window you can access all application features: Photon Robot’s store (internal), programming interfaces, mini games, chapters (lessons) and settings.

Initially, the options in the main panel are limited, e.g., the number of available colors, several mini games, etc. They become unlocked with each next experience level gained.

The third icon from the top (on the left hand side of the main panel) opens a list of all available programming interfaces. Initially you will see only the Photon Draw, but when you move up in your app experience level after completion of the new worlds, new items will appear.

In the lower right part of the main panel, next to the column with icons, there are two control bars. The top one is the robot's speed control slider (5). The bottom one is the robot’s energy level (6) – a dynamic indicator changing as the robot moves.

Robot management

The yellow shopping cart icon in the top right section of the main panel takes you to the robot's management screen. There are two preview modes - Statistics and Sensors - slide the switch underneath the robot to either side to change the view.

Statistics and the store

This screen allows you to check your progress in the application, the number of washers and nuts collected, stars awarded in your lessons and the distance your robot drove during play. In the panel on the left, you can “buy” extra robot skills (exchange the washers and nuts collected).
