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:

http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/175946

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.

Robot is HERE!

Sorry it took so long, but... school and the internet was distracting me :/. anyways, here it is, the sumobot, you will see more on my NXTLog next week. And yes I made a program file, with a little help with a certain part, you'll see how on the NXTLog. My next project might be a tank or a lawn mower, what I mean by lawn mower is a robotic lawn mower I want to make sometime in the future, im just starting on it. Until then, see ya

New set

I recently got a new set, it is called the "Thunder Driller" from the Power Miners theme. It was Neat, but... It could have more pieces, and the plastic wheels may be useful in someway, they might make a good carpet patrol robot. Anyways, the set had a lot of unique parts, and Will be used for future robots. Plenty of pieces... though it can have more, I would recommend it to NXT-users as well as lego power miner fans, because this set was more technical than I thought it was. Now you know my opinion and the little on what this set has.
