Last Friday we hosted the chairman of the local association for environmental protection (Bund Naturschutz) in our school. We told him about the creative process involved in building the SAM, from the first drafts and prototypes up until its state as of now. Unfortunately, we could not provide him with … Weiterlesen …
This week our software team wrote their first line of code in python. Unfortunately we discovered new important problems we didn’t notice. Another point is we didn’t upgrade our model – hopefully we will have done it next week. The manufacture of our robot is starting. If everything works as intended, it will be a modular, … Weiterlesen …

Recently we have been pondering over how to make SAM a more approachable and practical project. During that process we came up with quite some exciting ideas which shall be revealed shortly, so stay tuned for that! In the meantime, we decided to build in another part, an anemometer to … Weiterlesen …

This week we updated our robot by adding a safety switch that shuts down the robot in an emergency. Furthermore we tried to find out if the „hidden compartement“ of our robot is big enough to hold the hardware. In addition, our software team tried to learn the programming language … Weiterlesen …
Just a short update: Thinking about the size of the robot is crucial. Some years ago team MAI made the mistake of installing the safety switch a few days before the competition days. As a consequence, we were too big. We had to tamper with our robot at the competition … Weiterlesen …
