End of the Week

This is the end of the week, and we finally found the vex starters kit for usage in Solidworks We can use this to experiment on how we should build our robot in the future. And now that we have these references such as the links shown in this blog.

Additionally, we also learned the basics for programming the robots using robot C.

The program we will be using to program the robot, RobotC

Excited!

We have one goal for this week:

  • Receive resources and information from Mr. Martin to build the robot

I have to say, I'm looking forward to the end results of this project! Even though I'm a level 10 Bot Builder in The Sims, it never crossed my mind I'd end up a robot builder in real life. Part of me is bouncing off the walls with excitement, but the other? It's trembling in its boots. 

My teammates and I will be working hard this week, and I'm sure that they are excited too!

Vex's Inventor's Guide will be an invaluable source of information for us
