Robotix lab!
Today my group (Taryn and Unity) and I each built a robot that can push or grab something. Mine was a pusher. I started building it not really knowing what I was going to do. I had to connect the two wheels which was frustrating because it was hard to find the right connector. There are two wheels, two motors, four pusher surfaces (two the front and back. You can see a picture up above. I learned that you really have to balance each side out or sometimes it doesn't work because it is not level.
I think this has to do with Mission to Mars because we will have to do something with robotix or maybe build a robot. I think this had been really interesting. I hope that I can build a bigger and more complicated robot. It was really fun!

Nice job with your rover design. You will likely have to do some robotics for M2M, it's true. Now don't forget to reference the key point, which is complex systems. How was your rover an example of a complex system?
