Sorry for the lack of new content recently... a lot of us are working with local FLL projects and things are starting and taking some time from our schedules. I'm supposed to "judge" at a "practice competition" tomorrow and am looking forward to it.
I did meet with some 4th graders this previous Wednesday and had a lot of fun watching them demo their robots and ask questions. Some of the questions were VERY good and I was pleased to see that the students are asking questions about not only HOW things work, but WHY they work the way they do...
Good luck to all teams preparing for FLL... this Nano Challenge has some very tough components and I can't wait to see more robot solutions. Without giving away any details, if you are participating on an FLL team, feel free to email me and let me know how your team is doing and let us know if you're having fun.
