Tecnical Problems: Working on Robot Wheel Operation and Programming

The Day Before Thanksgiving Break, We Got Some Hansen Family for Helping Out With Programming. 

Here Leon and Victor Discuss the Robot Missions

Jackson, Jordan and Victor Review Programming the Missions

Marcos, Marci and Charlie Work on Robot Attachments

Lego Club Splits in Two Teams: Programming and Engineering

 Teams are working in smaller groups. Here Marci, Marcos and Charlie program the second robot.

Each group has an assignment. Here Jackson, Emil and Alec are building the front axle of the robot.

Here Dr. De La Rue is giving a hand to Jordan and Alec to program their mission.


In the next weeks will have some guest speakers explain some of the challenges of responding to natural disasters - the theme of this years Lego Robotics Competition. A firefighter from AFD and a local MD will visit and help us understand how robotics could protect or help people in need.

There are many type of natural disasters that have been in the news lately, but the students want to focus on forest fires, because they are such a threat here in New Mexico.

New Computers and Finishing the Two Robots

Today we got two new computers for programming and had some help from local Lego Robotics designers Jack Hanson, and Ruben De La Rue,

Here is Jack Hanson, who has been participating in Lego Robotics for many years. His expertise is helping our club design the optimal robot.
