Codeing!

Today we began programming our square robot. Our goal is to get it to go around 2 chairs three times. This week we also hope to add an arm to our robot and complete the next challenge! This arm will finish our current model of this robot and make our square bot into a claw bot.

Solid-works Done!

Our Robot solid-works is finally complete. We are preparing for our week of spring break and hope to continue our robot into attaching a claw and arm next week. The next challenge is to complete our autonomous task with our current bot.

Task 1: Complete!

Today the team began working on the robot's SolidWorks assembly. We plan to have to completed and turned in for a grade by Wednesday.

We also reprogrammed the robot to drive properly because our controllers were inverted. In other words, when we commanded the robot to turn left it would turn right and vice versa. Once this was complete, we were able to get the robot approved. The first task to build the robot is complete!

Finishing Robot

This week our group finished organizing bins and we starting building our robot. We are almost done with the building process on the and hope to finish Monday. We are finishing the battery box and we are almost done putting on all of the collars. We also built shelves for Mr. Martin on Thursday and we won!

Cart Reclamation

This week, our group is beginning the phase of building a claw bot.

We have all toolboxes organized and have our own personal box for our robot.

To start off his week we need to find parts for our robot and make our own robot kit.

Brainstorming

The team has yet to begin building the robot. However, today while working on AutoCad we brainstormed ideas of how we would make our robot better. Specifically the battery holster. We planed to build a slot for the battery in the top center of our robot so that the weight is more evenly distributed. The team is excited to begin building!
