(1/3/2020) Meshwaar Vijayendren and Dzazreal Raiyan       Today we were wiring our robot for the Line Tracing challenge and the Eco Disaster challenge.Our robot successfully passed all the challenges that we did today. Here are some photos and videos of our assignments today.               We hope you enjoyed our videos and photos of our assignments for today. THANK YOU, AND HAVE A GOOD DAY.                                                                                                                    SINCERELY,                                      FIRE TEAM

Pi Wars Progress  (16/2/2020) We are getting ever so close to perfecting our design.Today we were messing around with the i2c motor driver again for our backup bot.We fixed up the code and flaws as well as assemble the backup bot.We managed to troubleshoot all the errors such as the robot not being able to turn  This is the main code loop.   It just controls the motors when  the keys on the keyboard are pressed This is the backup vehicle.We were assembling it.We had a problem with the wire coming off when the robot moved Here's another look at the code.Of course this isn't final,we will improve the code and update again then

Pi Wars 2020-FIRE Check out my website:  aidanio.net Progress (19/1/ 20 ) Today,the FIRE team experimented with mecanum wheels.We learnt how to go horizontal and angular with mecanum wheels.We learnt how to use wireless keyboard and wireless PS3 controller to control as well. It was a success! Well not so much....We still have some issues but we can fix it as we progress.

Pi Wars 2020-FIRE Progress (5/1/ 20 ) Today,the FIRE team learnt how to use color sensor to detect red,blue and green. The actual name of the sensor is RGB Sensor. We tried to write the code and run it to get the reading from the sensor. It is working but we encounter some problems with the sensor. We are not really sure about the source of the problem but we suspect that it is the lighting of the lab.We will try again and see how it works in the near future

Pi Wars 2020-FIRE Progress (21/12/2019) Today we learned about ir sensor. For today's practice , we were preparing for the line tracing challenge. We need to make the car autonomous, but the coding was a bit confusing because we need to find out the right values to make the car turn left and right.
