Hi guys. Today we got a new thing, it’s a ramp! (Thanks to Mrs Bennet for making it). The ramp is used in Robocup Jr.
The ramp has caused problems for almost all of us. (Sara has worked out how to go over the ramp and stop at the silver strip).
Today, I did a bit of duplicating. (I mean duplicating a whole project). I did this because Dad said to me to add comments into my other project. I just made the code a bit different for the turning bit as well. The others used one of the wheels to turn back and another to turn forward. The code for it would be this… It multiplies the turn_speed variable by minus 1 to make one wheel turn backwards instead of just stopping.
I’ve done this because my old way of turning wasn’t turning sharp enough. But when I did the new way of turning, it was way better. If the old code for the turning still worked Dad would still probably make me rewrite it to what it is now.
The final thing to talk about is the ramp. My code did not get the robot to go over. It just ran my can finder code. We were going to look at Sara’s code for getting over the ramp but we didn’t have enough time.
Before I go here is the word and quote of the day.
