What a blast!!! This time round we got to start making 3-D objects. We started off by making a six by three grid. After making the grid, we started to make some trees to go around the edges of the path. We had to do a hard task with the robots as well. We had to learn how to work our bump sensor on the robots and then once we had figured it out, we had to make an obstacle for our robots to go around, bump into and change direction. Once we had completed that task we had to figure out how to program our light sensors so that they could go around and follow the lines. Our forest floor is starting to slowly come together as we made trees and used some real plants as well. We have started to plan our obstacles on the grid so that the robot can find his way through the scary and happy parts of our forest so it can rescue Hansel and Gretal. This week unfortunately we did not succeed with the light sensor programing. During the next week we will start the programing for the Hansel and Gretal challenge.
