New Blog

I made a new blog, specifically for gaming, its called nxtpuny's gaming, so if your a gamer, go ahead and follow my blog there. And for jojoguy10, this is the last post about games, so now it will be back to robots. And as for my robot, nothing is really happening, but of course, as I mentioned in my last post, I will be moving soon, so it may take a while. Thank you for your time.

Temporary disappearance and updates

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I'm going to be moving, and my NXT robot is packed away all nice and safe, so sorry for not posting. Not many updates here except to wait until I move to continue my robot project, and the updates I am talking about is for youtube, It is possible that I may make gameplays of games, if you read my channel, of Portal. Here is a list of games I can make Gameplays of, just simply comment which ones you would like to see.

Half life 2
Half life 2: episode 1
Portal

New Robot

This robot is called the Triclo-tank, its a wierd name for a robot, but its the best I have made up. this is my latest robot project, what this robot is supposed to do is drive until the touch sensor senses an object, when it does, it will make the robot turn. Meanwhile, the robot would use the sensor (the black one on the same side of the launcher) would be used in defense of itself, basically, if it sees an object around 10 CM, it will shoot one ball out of its launcher. Its rather simple, but it has a VERY complicated system. You can go here to see the rest of the robot pictures. 

sadly though, I had to take apart the EFORSB, I didn't and still don't know how to program the new sensor, so I had to take it apart to make an even smaller robot for less hassle; and the EFORSB was a little to bulky. 

Movie(s) will be coming soon...

all NEW blog

Hello there world, jojoguy10bazmarc, and I made a blog called "NXT'Cast" and you can click here to go to the blog. What this Blog is intended for is for podcasts between us 3. We will be making updates, news, interviews, ADs, a lot of cool stuff like that. Personally, I think that this will be a great experience, because I never normally get to do this sort of thing at all, so this will be a very new experience for me. Anyways, can't wait to see you all, and thanks.

Updates

For updates, I have a few things to say. My sensor has arrived, so I'll be adding it to my EFORSB soon and take pictures, make a movie, and add it to the NXTLOG. Unfortunately, Im not able to upload my brutal sumo video, can someone please email me music that youtube would find acceptable.

email: nxtpuny@gmail.com or just go to the bottom of the blog to get my email.

Also, my family and I are going to move out of our Apartment and will move to a house, so if you see a different location of robot movies, you can probably guess. See you in the next post.

EFORSB v2 programming Sneak peak

You all noticed that I have RobotC now, and I actually have alot of programs for the EFORSB v2.

The First Entry is an if-then statement:

task main()
{
while(true)
{
motor(motorA) = 75;
motor(motorB) = 75;
motor(motorC) = 75;
{
if(SensorValue(S4) > 25)
{
motor(motorA) = 75;
motor(motorB) = 38;
motor(motorC) = 75;
}
else
{
motor(motorA) = 75;
motor(motorB) = 75;
motor(motorC) = 38;
}
wait1Msec(3000);
}
}
}

the second entry is a basic programming that is fairly simple "as well as my first" :

task main()
{
motor(motorA) = 75;
motor(motorB) = 75;
motor(motorC) = 75;

while(SensorValue(S4) > 25)
{
motor(motorA) = 75;
motor(motorB) = 38;
motor(motorC) = 75;
wait1Msec(3000);
}
motor(motorA) = -75;
motor(motorB) = -75;
motor(motorC) = -75;

while(SensorValue(S1) == 0);
{
motor(motorA) = 0;
motor(motorC) = 0;
motor(motorC) = 0;
}
}

RobotC review

Hello there followers, as if yesterday, I own robotC now, and its really cool. It teaches you how to program in C code. I got it because Im wanting to work with robots, and using RobotC, its a start of learning how to program more industrial robots. Personally however, its ALOT more easier than NXT-G, because in NXT-G, you can make 3 motors move forward, but not have motor A move forward, motor B move forward at a slower speed than A & C, and motor C travels at the same speed as A, its a hassle. I would recommend this product to anyone who wants to take part in electronic, computer, or electro-mechanical industry, because im going into the electro-mechanical industries.

New Set


I got a new set, Like the thunder driller, only a... different set so to speak. Im really getting more interested in Power miner stuff right now, so I got this set for $12 less when it was on sale, I thought that was a good deal. Anyways, I will use pieces of it for future Robot creations. Like its possible that I might make a bulldozer out of the hub-caps on it. If you ever see it online somewhere though, buy it, it is really neat, plus its a Special Edition set. Well enough about this post, I will still need to work on the movie, but its doing fine, may have to be muted though. So to finish this post out, see ya'll in the next post.

EFORSB v2 Update

Here it is, my newest robot... The EFORSB v2, the second version of the first one I made about a year ago.
This robot doesn't have a program yet, but it will have one unlike the first one. And you will see it on the NXTLog when I made the program. You may have noticed the new spot from the Mini Brutal Sumo v2. Here is the link to It's MOCPages:
It will be uploaded on the NXTLog as soon as I finish the RobotC program, right now im just evaluating RobotC, and just getting used to it.
Updates for the robot video probably won't come for a while, I need to edit it, because it was having issues with youtube, but it will come. Thanks.
