Post Design Stage: Playing Around With the Arduino

Today we are working on learning our way around the arduino and adafruit motor shield and the base of an old remote control car. We are downloading the programs and code and deciding on a purpose for the bot.  Today we also are outlining the steps that need to be taken to complete the bot.  More to come!

The group together!

Multicopter & Helicopter (Our Plan)



Multicopter & Helicopter Idea which can be run by using our DC Motor and google maps to set the direction

Stemming from the  idea of a drone sort of toy, our plan is to create a bot that can move with a purpose, controlled by us.

Fire Breathing Animetronic Pony

 This fire breathing pony is a super cool idea.  If you could afford the pony this would be a fun project.

Ketchup Bot

The ketchup bot is good idea and in this case had a bad execution.  It would be cool to figure out how to get it working so that it would be fairly practical.
