thurs

karlin and erin and sherri and alecia and caroline were here today.

we talked about limit switches... there will be some sort of block on the gear for the arm, and the limit switch and some metal (caroline and i bent metal and drilled holes) on the tower frame. the block might just be made out of an eraser, we haven't really decided yet.

AUTONOMOUS CODE HAS BEEN STARTED. yes. timers and good stuff like that. no interrupts necessary! we think! now we have to code the if timer is between x and y do lgoweiutpreoiuw. aka the real code. basically forward. turn. forward. back. fwd. back. repeat the fwd. back.

the robot has wings. it's pretty awesome. it still needs a name. we want to fly. soon.

build is going to make some sort of adjustable crossbar for the back of the tower.

our electronics cover has been cut and mounted with velcro. it's great.

someone really needs to solder the good limit switch back together. both of the them (where's the other one?!) need to get mounted and make it work.

WE REALLY NEED TO GET DONE WITH EVERYTHING TOMORROW. REALLY.

we didn't forcefeed karlin today. progress has been made. =)

that's about all i can remember. general is our notebook from now on.

the backed up code is on emily.

you need to hook up the oi if you want printf values. don't forget.

yeah.

gnite.
