Programming

We started probably the most basic form of programming this week. We started off with the robopro program on our computers, an interface, an a motor. We told it to start for 3 seconds, then stop. After that advanced to switches and a lamp. On Wednesday, we made the lamp go on, until it had been on for 8 seconds or more. This is a really cool topic.

Bridge Building Challenge PART 2

The overall goal of the past month and a half or so, was to better our original bridge design, which mine completely failed. So all of the moment calculations, truss calculations, MD solids, beam deflection, and Free body diagrams have been towards the overall goal of building a good, stable bridge.
