To do

• Read the article "The Art of Lego Design" and do, one after another, all the constructions described in the paper. These are the basic elements for a robust design, and you will be applying them to your subsequent robot designs.
• Take pictures of your work (many intermediate pictures!!!) and create the report for lab3.
• Stop after each construction, take a picture and write down a few sentences to the on-going lab report. I am asking you to do it this way so that the technical aspects of preparing the lab-report become soon a quick-to-do routine.
• If done and wanting more: build a mobile robot (Moby) with a wired hand-held controller using touch sensors (those who have not done it already last time). Program Moby so that it can be made to left or right with the hand-held controller.
• If even this is not enough: start working on the last robot project described in the book: it stops and turns when it reaches the end of the table. It might be easy to build it following the model in the book, but test it and see if it really meets the specifications.
• If done, start working on robot homework 3 .
