Onwards

Well, there's not been many updates here on the progress of the project. Basically, its done. It went well'ish.

We were invited to many things to demonstrate it.
-CH news, Cable 14 in Hamilton, CTV, and the Discovery Channel

Of those, we only didn't do CTV because our robot decided to lose its mind and short out in an impossibly impossible situation. Go figure?

Everything was done pretty well. lots of things could have been improved. If we had a better outlook on what our final project was going to be, then we would have made physical changes that made it better, much much better. Things like lower moment of interia, make it ligher, stronger, more powerful motors, just stuff we ignored because we wanted to just get it to work.

We will soon get a mark for this project, I'm hoping we get a 12, we did do a lot of work and I think it was earned, at least for some of us.

This weekend it will be demo'ed again for some highschool kids, showing what you can do with Electrical and computer engineering. Should be fun!

What I want to focus on, from now on in this blog is the other things im working on, namely electronics on a race car and an autonomous robot of another sort.

I'm working on a pneumatic shifter for one of them. And on a myriad of other things for the robot car. Shall be fun.
