Project 365: Day # 66 - Wednesday, November 9, 2011 "My introduction into Robotics Club"

Today was the day undecided to take in some interest into our schools robotics club. I thought it was very interesting and just amazing how they were able to design an construct a prodigious robotic machine that had the cerebral abilities of an average human; one who could complete a simple task such as lifting a toy ball and making sure it drops it into the correct cylinder-like tube. The controllers look almost exactly like an Xbox 360 controller only with less buttons on it. But that's really clever how they designed the mechanics to make sure that those small amount of buttons on the controller were able to make something big and amazing happen to the robot with one push of a button. They designed two robots. One was small and the other was huge. But each size of the robot varies based on what tasks it needs to complete.

  1. That's cool that you took an interest in something new. I'm still amazed and tying to figure out how that works lol.
