Today, we discovered that the robot was unable to avoid an object on its right side. After spending time re-adjusting our code and checking the wiring, the robot began to function as intended. Then, we proceeded to make our program more efficient.

We also attempted installing Ubuntu on a computer provided by our project leader. With Ubuntu, we can take advantage of Linux-based programs that we can use for programming and controlling the Arduino. However, the installation wasn't successful.

Since we couldn't install Ubuntu, a person experienced in Linux distros recommended we install Manjaro. So we created a bootable USB drive and proceeded to install Manjaro. The process took some time, but the installation was successful.

Winter Internship 2019

Winter Internship 2019 January 02, 2019 In January 2,   since I already have a robot to work on, this internship I am planning to use this opportunity to maintain the robot by comparing the speeds and the load in the robot to make it more stable. January 07, 2019 During the summer internship, I had to make several changes to the robot and it was really hard to switch the idea between one technique and another. So this time I decided to learn 3D designing and build the 3D design of the robot. It will help me to manipulate the robot by using different function. January 08, 2019 On Wednesday, I spent the whole day learning 3D designing. January 10, 2019
