ART OF CODING





Introducing the Little Rock Central High Botball Team of 2005. This is our home page where information will be provided. The home page will include pictures and information on our progress; updates; team members and their contributions; documentation; sponsors; upcoming events; and game rules. We are excited about this year’s team. The team prepares students for their future by providing them with the many tools. Botball improves student’s social and management skills, leadership, teamwork, and skills. We will be constructing a robot to compete with local students on the high school level. Let’s get started!!!


Update 2-09-05 General


.... Laying out sample designs for the website. Created a the main.ic, and the supporting function files needed for the bots.


 
Update 2-10-05 Programming


.... Improved the FUNCTIONS and the overall coding of both bots. Improved some errors generated by <long>/<int> when compile in InteractiveC. And created sample testing functions to ensure the integrity of the robots.


 
..Update Week 1 Summary











s the week nears its end, my work on the website, too, comes to a finishing touch, which I would perform hopefully before the end of next week so that I can make ample time to focus on the programming of the bots. Never had I feel as confident of winning first place as I do now. Everything seems so godsend. Our team has many eager young minds; I myself among them for sure; we are also blessed to have people like Korosh and Billie-Marie among us, who, despite their quietness, would often be driven by their natural curiosity and hunger for new computer-programming knowledge. Next week, I am looking forward to run our first alpha testing on the board, which is near its completion
 
..Update Week 2 Summary














espite many obstacles, we accomplished our herculean tasks on time. The programmer's task for the week was to produce sample codes with which the bot can use to run testing procedures, The bot, or Prudens as we call it, will have the capability to hear, to touch, to sense, to see and to make adjustments to it's motors and servos when necessary. With all of which, Prudens will be able to accomplish the great tasks we have endowed to it using minimal time.

The Mechanical Design team's job was to create a stable base for the Handyboard and work with the "strategists" to create claws that can grab trash and "BotGuy." While the strategies are still in the process of being completed, the idea of the base for the robot was finished and the wheels are the next step in being built since we "scrapped" the first robot design.
