Final+Disign

=This is the champion robot!= Our code we used for the robot ran similar to our initial plan. Move forward 6 centimeters--> Raise pitchfork 15 degrees --> Reverse 1 meter -->90 degrees right turn --> forward 34 centimeters --> 90 right turn --> 1 meter forward --> Lower pitchfork 25 degrees

Our wheels had a diameter of 8 centimeters, so an approximate circumference of 25.12 centimeters. Knowing this we converted the distance the robot needed to travel into degrees which the wheels would need to turn in order to obtain that distance.

Sadly, in our fervor to play with the NXT kit we took apart our robot without ever videotaping it. Suffice it to say that it was fast, it competed the course in 12.57 seconds.Here is a picture of it with Charlie putting it on the course.
