We like to share our failures and miserable moments, as well as successes. Please watch our final presentation video here. Hope you like it. 😉
How to resolve this equation? Pi camera + Python opencv = color recognization I have been working on this for a while, and I am still … working …. We can get an image. In progress … We can extract a particular colour from the image. Still on … Focus […]
We were so exited to do more videos this morning, but quickly realized one thing: The robot is not going in straight lines! Is it from the big bang (crash) happened the other day? Otherwise, how come we never spotted it over the last so many days! We checked the […]
In the disaster zone, MissionMaster’s BraveBot is going to be courageous, swift, and agile to fulfill its mission to save. Its design was initially created by Dophin, then Panda made it real in Tinkercad, improved, and completed with fine details. And we’d like to share some of in-process design graphs. […]
The line tracking module contains photoresistors that can detect a white line from a black surface, or vice versa. This is the last failed attempt, with a high expectation of success. Although it did not, but it is worth to remember. An improved version: PS: The testing track was built […]
We are programming the line following sensor with a piece of white paper moving under-neath each photoresistor. However, we are not getting the signal as expected. (Update on March 6th, 2024) We have determined that it is the second and fifth photoresistor that are not working as designed. A replacement […]
We made an ultrasonic dance with the robot. With the two big front eyes – called ultrasonic distance detection sensor, the robot is able to detect obstacles in front of it, and therefore make decisions to stop/reverse and avoid crashing onto a wall. But, one interesting thing is that, if […]
Team member Elephant(Nickname) is showing off his driving skills in the video below. Do you approve his driving skills as the best driver? Or is the one below much better? Will his skills help us in the 2024 Pi Wars?We’d like to hear what you say. Please feel free to […]
Welcome to the remote control testing blog. Driving with a remote control is great fun, but only when it is working. We had a driving competition to find out who is the best driver. But to be honest, I am probably the best of all! At crashing? No, no. We […]
