Jose Luis Vargas - PM - 40 min - Soldering!
Today I was assigned to split a wire in two, soldier both ends to both ends of a resistor, encase the resistor in a white tube, and wrap the wires in two fuzzy vaccumm tubes in a spiral formation. An led is attached to the end of the two wires and the fuzzy vaccumm tubes would allow it to be bent into any position you may want it in.
Erin-PM-1hour-Probe machine work
I worked on the probe machine some more. I found the location of the plugs that go from the steppers to the board and were able to control the steppers from that location using the pi.
Nicholas-PM-40 min- Testing the tank
For today's open lab, I was testing the car with the code to make sure the motor would run and the ultrasonic sensor works.
Alan-PM-60min-Domo Arigato, Mr Saturn's Rings
Refitting of saturns rings and logging. it's a quiet day...

Jordan-30min-Open Lab
For my 30 minutes I built the model for a desk light that Mr. Burnham. I also then calibrated the printer to print the model.
Shane Ward-20 min 3d Printer
For open lab today, I went to go check out the printer and what was scheduled to be printed.
Open lab
What i did for open lab was i was trouble shooting the bot as well as tightening any loose bolts.
miguel-pm-30 min-open lab
I was working on the submersibles. I was 3d printing some parts and was also working on the 3d printers because one was not working. I was also physically attaching the 3d printed parts onto the PVC submarine.

Part 3 friends game
I need to fix the friends guessing game but my next approach for my next open lab is for the guesser to get hints. Right now, my game is programmed by luck so the guesser would have to really know the show in order to play and have chance on their side. I'm going to program the game so that people who watches friends have an idea of guessing the random character. It's still having problems on saying the random answer and stuff.

Adam-PM-60min-Unity
I started downloading assets from the Unity store and tried making a level in my game but failed to do so. I need to reinstall the pack because it wasn't working correctly.
james-pm-30min-project research.
I learned some more about deep learning or machine learning with tensor flow, in order to prepare myself further. I have added a few lines, as per the tutorial, but have not actually been able to have enough code to show a finished or partially finished product.
https://www.tensorflow.org
I have also made some decisions as to what shapes I will be adding. I think triangles, squares and rectangles will be the main objects that I use with these programs. My program will also allow me to test video with a possible modification to the code. I will be able to analyze generated images, and later be able to create some unique video analysis results.
This is an example of what a frame from the program will look. like It can decipher between different shapes by forming an outline and looking at the pixels inside to guess the shape. This has applications in content management, automation, and Artificial Intelligence

Adam-PM-3 hours-Alternate Assignment
Cheddar:
1) When the tsunami that hit Japan in 2011, scientist had set a goal to make a floating shelter. This is a light weight pod that can withstand a lot of trauma and float on water. Not only is it somewhat cost effective ($60,000), but it can hold many people at once.
2) Police have invented a new way to restrain criminals in the act of escaping. The new invention is called the 'Bolawrap 100'. It was invented to trap criminals in a non-lethal Kevlar tether. The price comes out to be a little less that $1000 compared to a taser guns $300 price range.
3) People who have diabetes know that to see what your glucose levels are at, you must go through a finger prick, which draws blood from your finger tips. This can cause nerve damage and its painful. Scientists have now made a way to eliminate this. The invention is called 'FreeStyle Libre'. It is a sensor that can automatically sense your glucose levels, which you can check through an app. This will help you see your trends and patterns.
Interesting Engineering:
1) 3D printing is awesome, but it takes so long to make simple and small objects. What if you could make it faster? Scientists have invented a new printer, but it is much different. Now, this invention can make objects by projecting light into a liquid resin which hardens due to some light. It only takes minutes no instead of hours!
2) If you are a parent or grandparent, you can understand how stressful it is to leave your baby alone. What happens if the baby stops breathing? Well, now you can monitor your babies vitals with a simple design. A sock. Now, this sock is special because it has sensors in it and it will be periodically sending information about the babies vitals to its 'Owlet App'.
3) When people from down south (like us in San Jose) go to then snow, we may not know how to get up there safely. These recent years we have had record snow in and around Lake Tahoe, and storms have been a big part of that. So how can we drive safely in bad conditions? Chains! however a lot of people don't know how to put them on. A company has now invented an easy way to put chains on. It's called 'Spikes-Spider'. It is easy to install, fast to install, and more effective than standard chains.
Extra:
1) Intel has made a new piece of tech that can revolutionize the robotic industry. They made a camera that can is a stand-alone tracking system that uses ," proprietary visual intertial odometry simultaneous localization and mapping (V-SLAM) technology, with computing at the edge", said Intel. This will help robots travel into off the grid areas and move around easier and more calculated.
2) People who have lost limbs may be getting a second chance to move again like they would with an organic limb. This is due to technological advancements and micro processors. Technology in the prosthetic industry has been advancing slowly since the 1990s. Now, scientists have found new ways to produce good results due to the optimization of microprocessors. How do they work? Think of it as a brain. The processor will take calculated guesses on your movements and tell other components what to do. Say you have a prosthetic leg but you still have your knee. The movements of your knee will send signals to the processor. If you want to run, you and your new leg must learn the movements together. Some day, maybe soon, prosthetic limbs will be so advanced that they become more useful than our organic limbs. Time will tell.

Erin-PM-1.5 hour- Worked on the Prober control project
Worked with Mr. Burnham to get the stepper motors working for the prober.
Myles-PM-Time?(Most of Open Lab)- Worked on writing Code for python program
I wrote a few lines of code that somewhat furthered my progress to directional movement sand location within the game
open lab
I worked on the robot saturn's ring while fixing problems with classmates such as Jordan, Vincent and Luis
Jordan-PM-Worked on Robot Club
Today during open lab I worked on the huntron project. We tried to make the stepper motor work but it wasn't moving as we anted it, so we have to see what is causing the problem. I think it may be a power problem, but I will only see on Thursday on wither I was wrong or not. I also helped the VEX robot prject, which was to help their group on learning to map out a controller.
servo robot arm with raspberry pi- Carlos Sousa
1/26/2019
I've started a new project in getting a robot arm to work again but not with an Arduino. For this i'll be using the raspberry pi.
so far I've cleaned the dust and started to look for some codes and videos for this project. Theoretically the code that I originally used was supposed to work but It didn't so ill be looking for new codes later on.

Jose Luis Vargas - PM - 60 min - Constructing Our Arena, Fixing Up Some Hardware, and Ideas
We've constructed a few parts of the arena (the podiums etc.) and have had to fix up some hardware on the VEX Robot because of some tests we ran yesterday. (Also logged a drawing of it in our Booklet.) Our tests revealed to us that a few screws and a couple of parts were a bit loose and had fallen off the robot. This allowed us to adjust the tightness on each component and reassemble them. Overall, the robot is still functioning as it should and is being further tested on. Furthermore, we've discussed what types of sensors we could add to the VEX Robot to enhance it, in addition to possibly adding a lift attachment, just in case the claw is unable to grasp an object.

Adam-PM-60+-Unity
Today I learned about how to animate characters in Unity and how to code different movements (run, jump, crouch, idle). This also included how to write code for movement, correct speed, functions, and how to proceed to use these functions in a correct order depending on the state of the character.
Example: If a character is idle, it can walk but not run. Once the character starts to walk, then it can run. However, you can make it to where the character can jump at any state.

Jose Luis Vargas - PM - 55 min - Updating Booklet Logs & Testing Movement
Today I worked on three of our logs in the Saturn’s Rings booklet, adding a claw to our first model, drawing out the action of implementing the brain into the frame of our Vex robot, and a sketch of our controller, confirming that our robot is now able to achieve movement and have been conducting tests on its limitations.

Servo lab- Carlos Sousa 2/25/2019
During this lab time, I got a servo to start moving from a raspberry pi. I wasn't as hard as I thought.
here's a video I saw as a tutorial: https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=how+to+move+servo+with+raspberry+pi&&view=detail&mid=461E97A2C282BC385B08461E97A2C282BC385B08&&FORM=VRDGAR
Nicholas-PM-40 min- Working on the binary quiz
I went on the website on the binary numbers presentation in the dig deeper section. The reason why I did the binary quiz is because I wanted more practice doing binary numbers. I was give a number as the question and to answer it I had to choose the correct answer that was in binary number form.
It was a challenge trying to remember all the place value by 2. I used the binary presentation and a calculator for help. I can learn more by practicing and remembering the place values without the presentations help.
Adam-PM-40min
Short Overview (Robot Project): We brainstormed ideas about mini rockets and planes controlled by a bluetooth controller, and resulted in the possibility of figuring out how to fix and fly a drone.
james-pm-50-min-pythonproj
https://github.com/jrieke/shape-detection I am working on a python project in which I make a convolutional neural network to recognize objects. I will use this as an excercise in the many skill in data analytics necessary. I am reading the github page to first learn about what the prerequisites are for this project. Then I will download all the modules required and follow the tutorial to make my code work.

Kilometers (Myles)-PM-10 Minutes- TEST POST
This is a test blog post! the Avatar of the decade was master of all four pods: "Tidepods. Isopods. Juulpods. Airpods. My grandmother used to tell me stories about the old days, a time of peace when Norville "Shaggy" Rogers kept balance between the pods. But that all changed when the Vape Nation attacked. Only Norville "Shaggy" Rogers mastered all four pods. Only he could stop the ruthless vapors. But when the world needed him most, he dipped.

New launch Of New launch of Robot Club Project Pages
Hey SVCTE Mechatronics Robot Club teams, I'm launching a new process to capture your progress documenting your Robot Club projects. The goal is that we have a better and easier method to create a portfolio of engineering work you have done. TBD, but I'll post a template and Rubric.
I'll also add your team mates as Blog Authors, you will see an invite... click accept.
I'll also post requests for specific data or content... so read the blog posts... it would be a good Idea to sign up for email notifications when a new blog post happens.
