tic-tac-toe

Katie — Thu, 04/16/2009 - 17:03

Today, we made a smart tic-tac-toe playing game. We talked about the robot. But, we still need to get the board, and make it so the arms can know where to go on the tic tac toe board- by the measuring. It was confusing because we didn't really know what to do for a while, but then it all worked out.

Also, we watched the play testing for the robot arm.

Today, we met Keepon, had the arm draw pictures, and saw the lights that will be on the machine.
Keepon is a little robot that interacts with people and is being used to help autistic children. He was a cool robot and was fun to make move. He was, also, very squishy!
Then, we went to the group's room, and drew pictures for the robot arm to draw. It was cool but it couldn't really draw the piggy cause the paint had issues. But, it was still fun to do, and was interesting to see the lights.

We played tic tac toe today, after sitting around and learning how to make it. Before that we went over inverse kinematics, again, to show where that arm needs to bring the paint.

...In the games the piggy, ('o'), won many of the tic tac toe games.

hangman

Today, we learned how to make a game, and we learned about the "game loop." We made our own hangman, which was pretty cool, and we also learned some math thing that.

But, we did not see the piggy today! :(

Python

What I did today was learn about/ how to use Python.

It was fun to learn and see what the results of the programs were, but it was confusing to learn because I have no experience with this and that made it pretty complicated.
