Day 1,
Today we are deciding on what we are
going to do for our robot. We are using the touch sensor, and we are picking out our wheels. The wheels we chose are the caterpillar tracks.

Day 2,
We're trying to make our caterpillar tracks run on gear.
A little later… We got the gears running perfectly on our caterpillar tracts.
Now we're making sure the touch sensor will work.

Day 3,
Today we are done with our robot. It's awesome right now. We still haven't finished the touch sensor. It is coming along though. It can still move though.

Day 4,
This is our final day building our robot. It is almost done. We're changing our wheels to a size up. The touch sensor is on and running. Our group is still needs to decide a name. It's been falling apart lately, and we still need to program it. Its name is MonsterwheelX7.

Day 5,
Today we will start to program our robot. We're using very simple commands. Once we finish our simple commands we'll try more challenging ones too. We also just took the beep test to make sure everything is fine. We just got it to go forward. Our robot is faster than some other robots goes faster than expected Mr. Cattanach said that next week we will make it turn!! :

Day 6,
Today we are programming our robot to turn then go back to the starting point. We have trouble downloading the programs. Now we are fixing our gears to make it run better. When we finally downloaded it, we must have typed it wrong because it went backwards. The good thing is that it turned with no problem.

Day 7,
Today we programmed a program for our touch sensor. We had a little difficulty but now we got a solution for it. Now we have 2 programs on our whole robot. It runs awesome. We just have to program our touch sensor.

Day 8,
Our touch sensor had some minor problems with its program and we fixed it by making it drive for a shorter period of time. Then it counted two seconds before it turned around. Now we are done. We have everything we need to, and fixed everything hat had problems. When fixed our touch sensors and found the solution to why it wasn't working. The MonsterwheelX7 is ready to rumble.

Monster x 7

 

Our robot was a robot like no other. We did our best to make do things, but it was quite hard sometimes. In the end it turned out great!!! Our robot first earned the power to move forward , but that was just the beginning.

The second thing it learned was the power to move forward and turn around. That worked great, too. During that procedure our robot broke, so we had to rebuild it. When it was done we did something incredible.

The incredible thing that we did was that we made a song of beeps. The song was cute. It was the last thing we programmed on our robot. Before that we also made our touch sensor work.
