I
saw Prof Namuduri on my way in. He provided the 2nd NXT to us. In the
mean time, we continued to research the possibility of designing and a
building a RF beacon for our rockets. The further we go, the more
likely it seems that it is implausible. There are some very cheap “off
the shelf” systems already available.
As we were realizing this, Prof Namuduri came in and told us that Eduardo (our exchange student from Mexico) has gotten object detection working. In other words - we are back in business!!!
We took previous flowcharts and simplified them to help build baby steps:
Step 1: drive around in a box (completed)
Step 2: avoid a simple object while driving around the box (we are almost here - there is still a little work to do)
Step 3: Avoid any object while driving around a box.
All three flowcharts were completed and provided to Eduardo. He is excited about completing this programming challenge!!! He would like to get started on the most difficult, but we dialed him back. We will stay on task and complete baby step 2.
At 3 pm, we joined a seminar on wire sensors and networks - this took the remainder of the afternoon!
