Entry 3: October 6 th, 2014 Anthony is tweaking the mistakes made in the robot. Erica & Ariana are working on the website (weebly). Tatiana is also working on the robot alongside Anthony. Rawan’s taking down notes, taking pictures, and getting any needed materials. Our group had an issue with the wheels wiggling and now are trying to figure out where to put the limit switch.

Entry 4: October 8 th, 2014 Anthony is fixing the servo molecule that Tatiana broke the previous class. Rawan is writing notes on what everyone is doing while taking pictures. Ariana and Erica updated website and joined group afterwards for building. The robot is almost complete. Anthony and Ariana will program robot next class. We are trying to determine the problem of why the servo molecule won’t work. PROBLEM SOLVED: We put the broken motor back on the robot accidently, changing more to a new one now.

Entry 5: October 10 th, 2014 Anthony is fixing the issue with the wheels because they were not attached correctly. Tatiana is helping Anthony and checking in on Erica and Ariana. Rawan has stepped in to repair the loose wheel. Anthony is currently attaching the battery pack.

Part 1 of Entry 7: October 17 th, 2014 Today Erica and Tatiana were missing because of the fishing trip. Rawan, Ariana, and Anthony worked on finishing the robot. Ariana took notes while Rawan and Anthony attached the battery pack along with the motor and limit switch to the brain of the robot. Anthony and Rawan are fixing an issue with the motors (instead of using two-wire motors, the servo modules took their place.

Part 2 of Entry 7: October 17 th, 2014 Anthony found out that we also have to replace one of the 2 inch shafts since some are bent and are causing a problem with the wheels. We are now finding many problems with our robot and have to disassemble it. This is causing a major delay in the building & programming process.
