Summary
FTC for Robotics Team:
SumoBots Competition for new members(run by Eric, Mentor Pinkesh):
We finally completed our NXT robots. Congratulations!!
Plan For Next Week:
FTC for Robotics Team:
- Everyone: Brainstorm designs for specific game strategies, ball collector/storage, bin stacker, magnetic ball recognition, etc. (repeat assignment from last week)
- Field team: Began building ramp for field from field blue prints(Terrell/Antonio)
- Mechanical/Programming: Experimented with raquetball collection and storage designs; Built, programmed, and tested a 'harvester design' from the Tetrix Quick Start Guide (Josh/Jaime)
- Wireless connection: tried to understand what is need to configure the Samantha wireless connection(Brandon/Mentor Scott)
- Bring in IR Seeker/Beacon for brainstorming(Eric)

Now remember to go over the different types of sensors we learned today.
Sensors
SONAR sensor - used to determine distance to object
Light sensor, used to determine surface tint
Sound sensor - used to detect sound
Touch sensor - used to detect contact with an object
