A great day of robotics
Today was a wonderful day in terms of progress
and experience. We accomplished things that we have either not tried
or were not successful in attempting before. For instance, we perfected
the bus route missions, ( explained in our previous blog), decided on an
official robot, and accomplished our main goal of getting the ball into
the center ring. The ball in the basket mission is still rough around
the edges. We need to start practicing aiming! In spite of that we
got the software up and running (special thanks to Mr. Steele and my Dad).
This has made programming much easier. The team has just recently switched
from the MindStorms software to RoboLab, a more recent version of software
to help program our robot. Also aiding us has been the Mind Manager software
and Mr. Allen's Getting Things Done process. These tools help us organize
our thoughts and ideas. We all look forward to getting more progress made
in the future.
