Week 11

This week began with our introduction to the Pololu 3pi robots we will use for the next four weeks of project time. The Pololu is a path-finding robot that operates using several sensors to follow a black line. I have always enjoyed watching videos of small robots, similar to a Pololu, navigating through mazes and trying to race against each other. This meant that I was very excited for this project to begin, and to learn how to operate the Pololus. However, I ended up being ill for the majority of the first week of this project. I was able to get a large portion of work done on the first day despite this and feel ready for the rest of this project. I am excited for what’s to come and working on this project for the remaining three weeks.
