Hi guys.
NEWS FLASH! The competition has been postponed till the 19th of September due to 2 of the 6 teams competing in the whole competition being sick!
We get extra time coding so I made my can finder and speed builder better. Here are the changes I made.
These are the changes I made to my speed builder.
Before: With my speed builder, I made the speed start from 30 and added 0.001 to the speed doing that for 10,000 times making the final speed 40.
After: I made the robot start at a speed of 30 but adds 0.01 to the speed and doing that for 1500 times and making the final speed 45. At the end I put a sound block that made a crowd cheer.
These are my changes to my can finder.
Before: I had a loop at the end of my can finder and my turn back code was affecting where the robot will hit the can.
After: I took out the loop and when I tested it the robot hit the can smack bang in the middle.
That’s all for today’s blog so I’ll leave you with the word and phrase of the day.
