The first Steps

The story begins now for Mike Igoe, William Cooper, and Bobby Fisher.

As discussed in lab, we will be defining three projects individually to bring to our first group meeting so we can choose what we will be doing for our project.

This process will take us to Nov 12, 2013.

We should put our links and ideas in one spot before reaching our meeting time. This will allow us to take a look and put some thought into feasibility to be discussed in the meeting.

If we want to define a rubric to determine feasibility, we can.

Please follow this blog with your regular email so as everyone makes changes, we are notified.

Thanks guys.

Best regards,

Bobby Fisher

    1. I think that's a good idea, we could do a lot with it like create an input to put on a custom show. I'll look into it a bit more.

      Here is something that I found was neat as a basis that can be expanded upon:
      Photovore: a robot that goes to the brightest source of light.

      I think it wouldn't be hard to code, the robot would rotate 360 degrees collecting data from the photosensor. Each time during the rotation that a new brightest is found we use an if statement to make that rotation angle the integer value for the final rotation which will be used after the inital rotation.

      More would need to be done with this though.
