Its getting hard to keep up,
but week 5 and 6 mark the finishing of the robot and really getting into the stages of programming. We've also taken a break from the research project, but i'm planning on dedicating some time for just research through our 7th and 8th weeks.
We're really having trouble programming a robot that i think should be a little simpler to program. I'll write something for them to help get directions for both the rear wheel and the steering wheel at the same time. Also i
think that they'll need a program to straighten the wheels more reliably every timeI did give them a bit of a break tho, we did a 'freebuild' day where i let them go at it with parts, but in an attempt to teach them something i broke out Isogawa's Toranomaki. Although they didnt finish some of the projects it was cool to get them to understand and use some mechanisms out of LEGO. Maybe they'll get a chance to finish their projects at another time. Imagine that though, i didnt get pics of that day, but i got most of everything else.
Also i may get an assistant to the team, it'll be great for the team to have another person there who knows their stuff. Next 2 weeks...i'll be splitting up the teams, good luck Bricktron Black and Blue.
