Dte: Reflection
This term we’ve been working on a big project that involves a digital robot called “Sphero”. Sphero is a bluetooth device that can be controlled when connected to an ipad (sort of like a Remote control race car). With this project we decided to design a spooky maze filled with obstacles for the robot to go through. Some of the obstacles include scary Ghost,Snakes,Sharks and even Imposters from the game Among Us and much more.
Our original idea for our project was to make a cardboard maze and use play dough and crafts to make different obstacles for the Sphero. We soon found out that this would take up a lot of time and materials that we don’t have, instead we have drawn up a basic path for the Sphero to go through. We still will have obstacles like snakes, sharks and lava but we would have to draw them. I think our theme of the Indiana Jones type of thing still stands.
Each period we logged what we did.
Period 1
We spent that time planning and coming up with ideas for our project. That included the theme equipment and ect.
Period 2
We spent most of period 2 finishing up our planning and finding a large enough paper to start our sketching of our maze
Period 3 we finished off our sketch of our maze and started to clean up the lines and make it as straight as we can
Period 4
We used most of this period cleaning up our sketch and doing further research and ideas.
Period 5
For this period we then started to look at our obstacles that we are going to include. We looked at our maze and set out where every obstacle is going to take place and start to draw it out.
Period 6 - Now
We have now continued to finish off drawing our Spooky obstacles and coding the sphero through our maze.
With our project I think that we did pretty well, we were able to get most of our drawing done on the maze and some of the coding. Not gonna lie the coding was the hardest part for us but we started some of it. Next time I recommend we spend more time focusing on coding the sphero than drawing the maze up. But apart from that i feel like our project went well and we did pretty good.
