Inspiration

 

While making the exit product, I thought it wouldn't really be possible to do it since all 3 of us were different in ways of how we did things and how we created different ideas, until we stumbled upon this do-it-yourself robot that gave us all that assurance that we could push through this project together without any doubts. At first, it was a bit hard gathering materials since none of us were artistic, but we realized that we could use old toys and illustration boards. As we created the project, we made sure that we would be able to make it properly and creatively, we noticed that our robot was a bit plain so we decided to switch things up by using spray paint and other materials, furthermore, our creative juices really kicked in when we created the body, it was hard but it certainly was fun since we were able to layer things through. Overall my realization and feelings on this project are certainly proud, happy, and relieved since we went from doubting ourselves to successfully creating a working robot.

 

 

About the Makers

 

I felt focused when making our product. I felt focused because I was always changing the robot’s code so that it will do what we wanted it to do. The overall experience for me was good because while there were ups and downs in making our product, we managed to finish it with not a lot of issues. My realization after making the product is that making something that uses a lot of jumper wires can cause a lot of confusion about which wires connect to the breadboard, microcontroller, and robot.


While combining jumper wires and helping my teammates make the robot was difficult. But I and my teammates pushed through and made the impossible thought into possible thought. The realization that I made while helping and working on the robot was that anything was possible and with the help of our parents we made it possible.
