Robotics

So, I have been teaching a robotics course. I made a bunch of boring videos up that my students were using. I don't know if they were effective, but we did manage to build and program the robots in time for the local competition.



The game that the robots were competing in is called Hot Shots. The goal being to go around and gather balls for scoring different goals (of differing difficulty and value). I was actually coaching two teams and both teams did pretty well. I had been wondering if they would build anything in time, but they did more work in the day before the competition than they had in two months. You can see in the video one of the teams, 3497A.
