Round One: Socket to It

So, we've successfully completed the first stage of the Project. What we've accomplished thus far:
  • Built the robot(3 rebuilds in order to get the gearing ratio right)
    • Give us a break, we're in electrical and computer engineering, besides it just about climbs walls now
  • The VEXPro has been programmed for movement and interrupts
    • Motors function properly and the speeds of the motors had to be offest in order for the robot to move straight.
    • Robot can move forward, backward, right, left, and come to a stop.
    • Bump sensors have been added into the interrupt programming for collision detection.
  • Android App has been programmed and sends commands to the VEXPro
