What we did today:
Today, Lindsey watched a video on how to wire and code an ultrasonic sensor. She wrote code and tested the sensors and they worked. Conor spent his time preparing the robot to receive the plastic layer in which the pi and the breadboard will sit. He also cut the plastic sheet.
Next steps...
- attach all the ultrasonic sensors onto the robot now that we know how to code it
- code the motors to work with the sensor code
- put sensors on the front of the bot to find an object
- Attach the plastic sheet to the robot
- Connect the sensors to the pi

This video includes how to code the sensor and which pins should be attached where.
