Today we programmed our robot, and tried many different controls for it until deciding on the one we liked. Because it is an early release day, we didn't do much. but next week we will get a lot done!
Today, Big Brother Brand has moved on to the tetrahedron challenge (Thank you very much Mr. Martin), and we seem to have made significant progress on that over the past day.
Jesse Photobombed Rom Hunter is discussing the robot with a fellow student Today is Big Baller Brand's only day of work this week due to the fact that we have an AP World History exam on Thursday. TODAY IS THE DAY OF THE FIGURE 8!!! WE ARE DONE AFTER TODAY THAT'S IT! (Rom from the future here... JK we aren't done)
Finally! We figured out the problem with our figure 8! For some reason all of the screws on the robot were loose, so we had to tighten them, and we also started charging our battery on Wednesday, which has helped us progress a lot. Today, we ran our first official after it worked perfectly two times in a row, and the robot managed to fail us when Mr. Martin was watching. Also, our battery was displaying that it had 8.2 voltage on it and was dying when we ran the code, so we replaced the battery, and will use the new one next class. At least now we have hope, and I am certain that Hunter and I will finish the figure 8 and be able to move on to the tetrahedron by the end of next class! P.S. Hunter is wearing a different outfit in each photo because he has the second picture so he needs to upload it, so meanwhile, there is a picture of hunter on Monday looking very cute.
