#mindcontrolledrobot

During this one year in Making class I have experiences from coding with Python to building and painting my own wooden chair. I’ve also solder and worked with Arduinos. Out of these experiences and many more, the most important thing I learn was learning to use power tools to build my own chair. I’ve always been clueless and scared using power tools, but through this class I now have the knowledge in building my own wooden chair or other big projects.

My experiences in Making include soldering, making a chair, programming, and working on our final project. Through the process of working on our final project, the mind controlled robot, I have learned to persist. There were times that nothing was working and we just wanted to give up as a whole team. We still continued to work and research as much as we could even when we didn’t know where we were heading. At first we thought that our project was very straight forward and it would be easy to get it done, but then we realized that it wasn’t like that at all. Our ideas developed and changed overtime. The mind controlled robot was completely different and more difficult than I thought. At the end the mind controlled worked out fine, even when we thought we were not going to finish on time.
