Personalized Bingo Bags

Behold my first Attempt at my bath tub cleaning robot.

Look, the first version of the robot
shower scrubber


Im Trying to break it down Into simple steps so I dont get frustrated or bored. Step 1 WAS to Make Something capable of scrubbing. Currently it uses a touch sensor But im going to modify it to use the ultrasonic sensor instead. The touch sensor kind of gets stuck if it doesn't hit the tub side just right.

pequennas want to do it in stages because I'll be bored if I try to do everything in one step. The first step was to do something you can wash. Now the robot use a touch sensor but I'm going to do to use an ultrasonic sensor.

Step 2 is to make Something capable of scaling the bathtub wall. Step 2 is a Lot Harder Than step 1. What Makes It More Difficult is the NXT motors Are way too heavy to try and scale the wall with, so Im going to Have to buy Some really small servos and a microcontroller. Using the NXT kit is nice Because I can build working prototypes really fast. Anyway, stay tuned!

The second step is to do something they can climb the wall of the shower. The second step is more dificl that the first step. The LEGO motors is heavy and then light nesecito buy engines for this step. Legos are easy and I can consegir prototypes quickly. Let's see! In Other News

One of my rice balls Had Had The Other cilantro and umeboshi. Needless to say I only ate one of Them:) My bento box says "more and more pleasantly
