Last week our team was able to fully succeed in completed our finished robot and we took the time to research how to operate our robot and set it up to connect to the joystick and can now control our robot!

We have also learned how to program on RobotC to be write autonomous code, which is code that is pre-written to tell the robot how to move without controlling it. After showing Mr. Martin that we could move our robot by controlling it on the joystick he gave us a new challenge. The challenge is to make the robot move around a set of chairs autonomously. We plan to accomplish this task by the end of this week.

The challenge may seem simple, but it take a lot of perfection because any small problems can end p throwing the whole thing off. The process includes a lot of trial and error and then correcting mistakes as you go. This challenge is definitely getting us ready for harder challenges in our robot future!

This is how the challenge is set up!
