UCSD Trip

The UCSD was very fun. The Cave or the 3D room was SOOOOOOO AWESOME. I kept reaching my hand out trying to touch the 3D objects. Also, the 3D fabrication room was cool also. And the singing tree, as well as the super computer were both enjoyable.  And th...

Ultrasound Sensors

Today in DIY Robotics we learned about ultrasound sensors. Well, not just Ultrasound sensors, but mainly ultrasound sensors. We built an ultrasound sensor that actually worked except I couldn’t do my own because the laptops weren’t working. Ov...

Creative Computing

Today I learned what functions were and we learned how to add an image into the sketch. I also learned how to translate, rotate, and scale an image. I had to make a sketch where there were 3 images and had to add words next to each of them. I also got to ...

Learning Soldering

Yesterday and today I learned how to solder and soldered wires to resisters to pins. It was fun even though I got burnt once. Jeremy helped me a lot and so did Carlos. I also got a remote control truck for robotics that I am going to take apart and then d...

Creative Computing July 17th

Today I learned how to use the random function.  I had to make 200 circles randomly placed on a sketch size 900 by 700. It was fun. People who were absent also got caught up with all of the stuff we learned. I also learned about functions and type of fun...

Radio Control Car

Today I cut 12 inch black wires and put them in this storage box for Friday probably. Carlos also soldered my wires to an IC chip. I had to remake a green wire because my other wire was too short and I had to solder a pin to it. Soon I think I will be add...

Arrays

Today in creative computing I learned arrays. I also made circles that would move left to right on a loop so they would move back and forth forever. I also used a lot of conditions on sketches. There was a fire drill that interrupted us in the middle of c...

Makerplace Trip

Today I went on a field trip to Makerplace. It was somewhat fun and we visited different workshops such as wood, crafting, electronic, and laser. We also saw this cool octopus machine and a wooden motorcycle. We also saw band saws, a CNC laser cutter, etc...
