AWHS Principles of Technology

Spell your name from space!

THANK YOU for all of your work to get us organized. We have more components arrivin today and next week to make your robots even better.

Rally schedule today:

1. let’s run your Arduino Rovers run the robot challenges today.

2. then  transition to the Ultrasonic Robot – after you have passed the Rover challenges.

3. Leveling up your Sensor robot – click here.   Add a swiveling sensor. 

Finish your:
3d printed bridge
future transportation

Next assignment:
3d Modeling a Building

Upcoming projects:
1. learn to solder – the parts on on the way!
2. 3d modeled and printed scale model of Archie
3. bridges are printing!

Today’s assignment: 3d Modeled Future Transportation

Previous assignment: 3d printed bridge

1. let’s run your Arduino Rovers run the robot challenges today.

2. then  transition to the Ultrasonic Robot – after you have passed the Rover challenges.

3. Leveling up your Sensor robot – click here.   Add a swiveling sensor.

3d Printed Bridges-
I’ve got the sand and the weight spreader bar ready to go.

It will take some time to get the bridges printed before we can assemble and test.

Class discussion: What would be interesting to do (besides free time/gaming sessions) while the bridges are being printed?

Popsicle Stick Bridge Awards Ceremony

next up – the 3d Printed Bridge Design

1. let’s run your Arduino Rovers run the robot challenges today.

2. then  transition to the Ultrasonic Robot – after you have passed the Rover challenges.

I’m going to have a couple teams test drive this code for a servo that has the sensor look left and right when it detects an obstacle. 

Today’s big plan!

1. We had a great start to the bridge competition yesterday.  Let’s wrap them up today!
2. Assemble your linked shapes one at at time. 
3. While people are attaching their shapes together, let’s talk about the 3d Printed Bridge.
4. Take the 3d printed bridge quiz and survey.  Refer to the assignment for answers.
5. Draw a plan for your bridge. Show top, bottom, left and right sides of your bridge. Show where the fasteners will attach.

Today is the day to show your Arduino Rovers run the robot challenges today.

You should transition to the Ultrasonic Robot – after you have passed the Rover challenges.
