Today (January 23, 2012),
Isaac is working on the logo for the website. Spirit will be learning to use the video equipment to take videos during the building season and at competition. We have discovered a way for the robot to climb the ramp by adding a fifth wheel. Now we don’t have to worry about having the robot over the hump. We are working on the “ball-pick-up” mechanism and the “ball-placement” mechanism. We are setting up a practice area with rugs, goals, and a ramp. So that when the robot is ready, it will have a place to practice. The animation team is starting to work on the school building for their animation.
