Unfortunately, the eight year old half of the Red Alien Monkeys were away sick so there were only two lots of hands working today. Two girls from another group were left without their older buddies so they worked with us for the day. Despite this, we still got a reasonable amount done on our mapping and programming for the robot. A successful forest floor plan has been drawn so now we are attempting to upscale the drawing to a six by six area-A3 paper. Currently, when programming the robot, we are trying to master rescue programming which means getting the robot to follow a black line. Previously, members of our group have managed this but we have found that just because the robot did it once, it doesn't mean it's simple to get the robot to do it again.
Finally, at the last minute, the robot did follow a fairly straight line and next time our goal is to get our robot to follow a wonky line and stay on track. Hopefully, our group will be all well and ready to get to work next week!
