Sensing

The light blue blocks in the Sensing category are all related to the Edison robot’s various sensors.
These blocks allow you to turn different sensors on or off, clear stored sensing data and use sensing
data as value inputs (oval-shaped blocks) or Boolean inputs (diamond-shaped blocks) inside blocks in
an EdScratch program.
