Week 1 Narrative
Tasks:

-Task Mr. Plotnick to hook up QTR sensor so the error disappears on the arduino program.

-Look for wiring design (arduino to motors)



Next tasksː

-Physically wire up robot for testing

-Look for material for the track

Week 2 Narrative
Tasks:

-Connect two wires of each one in the (+) and (-) screw terminals for channels A and B.

-Set Brake A and Brake B pins on HIGH to let the motors slow down.

-Read anolog input A0 and A1 to measure current through motors.

-Digital pins 0,1,2 and 13 cannot be used.

-D2 and D13 are not used by the board, so we can use these two digital pins.

-D9 and D10 are in the corner for servo sockets so if we are not using the sockets then we can use these pins.

-Try using pins D14 -D19.

Next tasks:

-Test wiring for the robot

-Solder appropriate wires for testing.

Week 3 Narrative
Taskː

-Design Wiring schematic for robot



Next Taskː

-connect sensor to arduino motor shield

- build bracket to mount the sensor

Week 4 Narrative
Tasksː

-task Mr. Plotnik to put pins on motor shield in order to connect wires from sensor.

-create track design to show capabilities of the robot.

Track Design:

First stage: Robot will recognize black tape and go in a straight line.

Second stage: Robot will make the decision to go left.

Third stage: Robot will move around a loop.

Fourth stage: Robot will follow tape and spell "HCC".



Next Tasksː

-mount sensor on bracket

-mount bracket onto robot
