You are now all set, disconnect Alvik from the computer, put some obstacles around Alvik, turn it ON, and see how Alvik navigates around your room avoiding them.

Note that some features might look different if you are using the Online IDE. Fear not, all code and files are interpreted the same independently of the IDE you choose. However, the UI of the Online IDE displays files differently.

* There is a set of already built examples that will help you to better understand how Alvik works, you can download them from [this link](https://github.com/arduino/arduino-alvik-mpy/releases), unzip them in your already created _alvik_ folder and you will be able to see them straight away in the Arduino Labs for MicroPython.

Now that all the previous steps have been set, let's see how to create custom programs for Alvik to move forward until detecting an object in front of it, Alvik will detect it, dodge it and continue on its way.
