finished robot

We have just finished our robot, and we are all very happy.  It is not as big as we all expected but it is still pretty cool.  We also programmed it so we can drive it on Sam’s phone.  The programming took about 20 minutes and was copying what they said to do from the directions. It doesn’t go very fast, but it can climb up crazy inclines (45 degrees).  We can also drive it without following it because there is a camera on the front of the robot that we can see a live image of were it is going.  The image does buffer a little and doesn’t have good depth perception. Because of this, Ryan and I are now going to start to try to program it to be controlled with the PS4 controller.  Very exciting.
