Title your Movie: "Silly Walker" by_________________________________(names)
Challenge: Build a robot that walks without wheels:
Iteration1
Show First design and the problem(s) encountered.
Iteration 2:
Show second design and tell the problem(s) encountered. If you did more,
go on to
Iteration 3:
Our Final Design
Our Program
Include picture of EV3 program.
You might want to have a final video of your robot walking off screen.
Video Checklist:
Names:_________________________
Opening -
_____Name: "Battle Bot"
______By: ____________(Your Name)
1. Challenge 1 - Program the Bot to move about the battle ring with a winning strategy.
____ State the above challenge in your video.
_____Show your Program including Ranges: Darks, Lights, Threshold.
_____Explain what the threshold means (The threshold is a reflected light reading by the color sensor, half way between the dark and light readings above which, the bot is triggered to change its behavior.)
_____Show your Bot traversing the ring.
2. Challenge 2 - Build the Weapon
_____State the above challenge.
_____Show the steps in building your weapon.
_____Show "Gear train" moving with generator.
_____Show attaching weapon to bot.
_____Show the Program with the weapon code added.
_____Show testing Bot in ring.
3. Challenge 3- Fight!
_____State the above challenge
_____Show actual battle footage
_____Tell about problems you solved and how you solved them
_____Show any modifications to your design
4. Challenge 4 -Reflection on what I Learned
_____ State the above challenge.
_____By working with gears, I learned about MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE. "Gears provide Mechanical Advantage." With gears, you must make a choice: SPEED OR POWER. (You can't have both!) I chose ____(Speeding Up = Gearing Up. Slowing Down = Gearing Down, but with more power. Use these definitions in your video.)
____What I learned about being a problem-solver.- Probably that it takes many versions of a design to get the best one. This is the "Engineering Model." Also, was gearing the weapon worth it? Maybe - maybe not. (It depends on your design.)
_____What else is worth telling? Was it hard but still fun? (This is up to you.)
PLEASE KEEP THIS VIDEO AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!! EDIT YOUR WORK DOWN SO THAT IT SAYS JUST ENOUGH TO KEEP IT INTERESTING!!!!!!!
