Today, we are pushing ourselves harder to get the code perfected for the robot. We were able to get closer to allowing the robot to finish the course, but unfortunatley someone exited out of our program and we forgot to save.

Today, We made very little actual progress o the Robot. We were stalled due to the battery not being readily charged. However due to this setback we were able to figure out a problem with the chassis, which we fixed with new screws to hold everything into place. By the end of this week we will continue programming the figure-8.

With the school year coming to an end we are speeding up, this includes getting the robot to finish this challenge at least by next week allowing us to move on. Today however we are making strides with the programming of the robot and estimate its 90% done.

Today we have gotten the robot to about 50% compatibility with the track, it is performing the correct turns but only stops due to bumping into the chair on 2 of the last turns. We are currently working to finish this problem and improve the robot's ability to finish the track.

So we have completely fixed the previous problem in the code where our robot will continuously bump into things. Now we are working on getting it to make the proper amount of turns to complete the figure 8. We figure by next week we will have it 70% of the way to completion.

We continue our trek to complete this first challenge, we've finally solved a previous minor wiring issue so that our robot finally turns where we want it to. Sadly we still ran into programming problems that allowed the robot to continuously bump into objects, this will be pending to be fixed.
