Line Follower: We built our robot according to the nxt projects 1.0 and then programmed it for the line competition. Our robot worked on the straight line but once it hit a turn it malfunctioned and broke its wheel off causing us to get a zero for our grade.

Block collector: We built a robot with a controller allowing us to steer its every movement. We tied second place with getting one block. I believe if we had more time our claw method would have gotten first place over the other plow methods.

Drag race: We built our robot using two spin art engine types to run ours. We timed ours as the fastest in class although our robot had the 3 second count down from the dragster program. Therefore causing our robot to have a delayed start when racing. So we finished in 3rd place.

Maze Quest: We built our robot with a hand held controller because we new it would be the most reliable method. Our robot had trouble with turning due to reasons unknown but something was taking all the weight off of the front tires. We completed the course all three tries. I realize now the robot with the capability of the sharpest turns works the best.

Sumo: Cayce built our robot from scratch while i was absent. Then while he was absent i programmed the robot. I programmed our to go 100% power only going straight to throw the opponet off the platform. We beat Emily, but lost to Sean and Camedon due to clever maneuvers by them.
