New season!

Brand new season and this year the theme is: FOOD SAFETY!
The board is set up, but we don't know all of the missions.. It doesn't look easy but we always say that.

We've tested a robot to see if one with treads would work with our line-follower, and it looks like it will.

Okay, that was Matt.  Alpha Rex here.  Now, me to talk about my design.  It needs a bit of clearance to turn, but it looks like we'll have enough on most of the board.  When I was connecting cables, I realized that it already has a built-in structure that can be used as a cable tie.  The reason it's so long is because it has a gear-powered arm, which needs a bit of length to produce.  It's a pretty controlled arm, though.  It has big wheels, but I have a couple kinks to work out, such as the fact that it looks like a bit of weight is on the caster wheel.  I can fix them.  I have not seen a robot with an ultrasonic sensor yet, so I figured it was safe to use one.  This robot is more carroid than humanoid or animaloid or buggoid or robotoid or pennoid or computeroid or cuppoid or boardoid or butterflioid or paperoid or treeoid or omletteoid or... you get the idea.  It looks a bit like a car.  This is all I have to say.
