Week 10 (April 3,2017)

We got the arm to work with them help of Yoni. I brought the straws but forgot the tape so we have to construct the tetrahedron another day. But for now we are just going to play around with it and get used to the movement.

Week 9 (March 31,2017)


We are starting the process of programming the claw to function properly. We need to bring 18 straws to help construct the tetrahedron. We've compiled the files to start the robot movement manually, but we don't know how to move the arm. we are out of time so we will figure out next week.

Week 9 (March 27, 2017)

Today Brandon and I almost put the final touches to our claw bot. Mr.Martin gave us a couple of tips to help the stability of our robots arm. We are almost done hopefully we get to programming the movement of the claw.

Week 8 (March 24, 2017)



Brandon and I began to build the claw for or robot. We need to program the robot to pick up the tetrahedron and place it on the goal. We are starting to gather parts for the claw. Next week hopefully we get far quick.

Week 8 (March 20, 2017)




Brandon and I finally made a good program. With the help of Darien our robot somehow manage to go around two chairs 7 times autonomously. Our next step is to make a claw bot. its going to be hard.

Week 7 (March 13, 2017)











Today Brandon and I have finally gotten the basics of programming down. We are programming our robot to do a full circle around two chairs. One problem we keep running in to is that one of the bearings on our robot keeps falling off. Hopefully by the end of the week we can figure it out

Week 6 (March 10, 2017)


Today was a great week, we finally got our robot up and running. There was a slight problem within the programming that hindered our progress, but with the help of another group we got it moving. Our next task is to get it moving around chairs in a figure 8 motion.

Week 6 (March 6,2017)




Today is the start of a brand new week and we are ready to start programming. Joe was the only one who knew how to program in the group and he's still M.I.A. So we acquired another group to teach us the ways of coding. Hopefully by the end of the week we will have the robot somewhat functioning.

Week 5 ( March 3, 2017 )


We finally finished our robot with the help from Yoni. We couldn't really get too deep into programming because when we finished we had about 15 minutes left. But when we get back from the weekend, we will start the game of catch up.

Week 5 (February 27, 2017)








 We started the rebuilding process with the help of another group. Are goal is to finish the robot correctly with out any flaws and start programming. We are almost done we just need to attach the frame and connect the battery and we can start programming by tomorrow.

Week 4 (February 24, 2017)


Brandon and I are still down two group members and we've encountered a roadblock. Our robot has a couple of flaws which required me to begin to take it apart. We are back to square one hopefully our two group members comeback, and we cam comeback from this first L.

Week 4 (February 20,2017)




 Brandon and I started the process of selecting which robot we wanted to build. We decided to choose to build a square bot. Our goal for this week to collect all of the parts needed and get through most of the steps. We are down two people so this might be difficult.

Week 3: Monday blog post(2/13/17)


Today we started to disassemble the previous robot teams robot and organize the pieces to their respective spot. We hope to finish ripping apart the robot so we can start to build ours by the end of the week. We have also turned in our badges from virtual worlds so we are ready to program the robot. We'll keep you guys posted.

Today we have achieved our 30 plus 
badges . We achieved this with the help 
of Ben , Brandon , Joe and with the help 
of myself . It was very tedious to create 
codes to control and turn the robots in 
the virtual world .

We started working on RobotC virtual worlds and we started getting badges, I personally got 2 on Ruins to Atlantis. That's just 2 of many more to come.


















We are all starting to get the hang of it. Its not too hard. We will have easily more than 30 badges by the end of the week.

Week 2:Friday Blog Post (February 3,2017)
















 Today we started to work on ROBOTC Virtual Worlds. We started on the level Ruins of Atlantis. This is where we learned the basics of programming and coding within the program  to move the robot. We collected a couple of badges.
