This week we got a lot done. As you can see below we finished building the tetrahedron retriever in solid works. We also did the manual challenge for putting the two tetrahedrons on the tower in less than a minute. Even better than that though, right as the bell was ringing we finished the autonomous tetrahedron challenge with just one class of programming.

This week we are continuing to work on the claw bot. We have it almost completely built and programmed. We need to build our tetrahedron to do the challenge. We plan to build our tetrahedron out of straws and tape to make it stronger. Our goals for this week is to finish up our bot on solid works and do the first tetrahedron challenge.

This week was a little slow starting up with the claw bot. We did finish building t for the most part and its programmed, but we will not be able to complete the challenge because we didn't build the tetrahedral needed. On a positive side though we decided to start working on the modifications in Solid works so we aren't super behind.

This week we are setting some new goals. To start we need to modify some things on the robot to even have the ability to put the claw on there. I would also like to get it fully assembled and programmed. To fully complete our goal I think we should attempt to complete the second challenge.

This week we got a lot accomplished. We finished the first challenge successfully on our first try. Also we finished building our robot in Solid works as you can see below in the blog. Next week we will set some new goals and move on to some other challenges.

This week we are still working on programming our robot to finish the first challenge to go around two chairs three times autonomously. The quarter is ending very soon so we are in a rush but I have faith that we will get it done in time. I also hope we finish our robot in Solid works this week.

This week we were moving very fast paced because we are still trying to catch up to some of the other groups. We have come very close to accomplishing the goals for this week but we aren't quite there. Next week we are going to have to work extra hard to accomplish our goals, but I have faith in my team.

Last week we started to program the robot in order to pass the first challenge. Our goal for this week is to complete the next challenge and finish building our robot on Solid Works. We also plan to modify our robot so that the claw can be added to the robot.

This week we started programming our robot to move autonomously around two chairs that take up eight squares of the tile. We also started building our robot in solid works. Both of these things are difficult and we plan on tackling these challenges next week. This week I feel that we got a lot of work done.

On Monday March 6, we continued to work on figuring out how to code the robot. We hope to figure it out today so that we can work more in depth with it tomorrow to figure out the more intricate things. Our goals for this week is to complete the challenge and drive our robot with the joystick over to Mr. Martin.

On Friday March 3rd we started programming our robot and put the finishing touches on. We completed our weeks goals because we finished putting our robot together and began programming it. Like before it is still a little tricky but we hope to get it mastered next week.

This week is the week to let our robot shine. We just finished all the badges and and got more then we expected last week. This week we are beginning to build our robots and hopefully at the end of the week we will finish what we have started.

On Monday February 20, 2017 we FINALLY finished getting our virtual world badges. Now we started taking apart the robots to become familiar with them so when we start to build we eliminate a lot of confusion. By the end of this week we hope to start building our robot and even hopefully start to program it.

Monday, February 6, 2017; Today we are in the process of getting 30 different badges for our whole team. Right now our teammate Jayce has 10 badges which is the most badges for our team. Our teammate Dylan has 6 badges and is in the process of getting his 7th one as I write this blog. We are already half way there so we hope we can start building our robot by this week.

Friday February 3, we got back into it with virtual world and started to get more complex. Some of us started getting some badges. Jayce is close to completeing one of the courses. Its a lot of work but we're getting the job done.

On Monday, January 30, we all started getting familiar with the blogs. Although the program is difficult at first, once you get the hang of it, it becomes much easier. We started out by making our biographies and publishing them to the blog. Then we started publishing last Mondays post since we were a little behind.

On Friday, January 27, Day 1 of Virtual worlds. Today we now begin to program robots on the computer to now become familiar with how to program. This is the first step of our trial to success, the first step of our lives, the first step of engineering.
