I was browsing around online and i came upon some cool robot videos, Check these out!!

We have had our first meetings of the year and have recruited some new members for our team. An engineering class at our school has decided to help us by working with us to coming up with a design. We have two robots in this years cometition so we are thinking of making a offensive and defensive robot that can function best when they are used together. There are several videos on youtube of this years competition so we have been watching them to get ideas about what works and what doesn't. Here is a link to one of them "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6H_hrSBSqMs".

The new competition this year will be a engineering challenge since the competition involves the picking up of Nerf footballs, 3inch balls, and a basketball. These Nerf balls have a variety of sizes which makes it important to be able to pick up all the different types, but they are slightly compressible which should make the balls easier to grab.

We have been able to control all censors with and without the transmitter with the new program, this is a major breakthrough! Now we do not have to worry about which sensors we can use but how to build the robot and use the sensors.
