I received a video showing a student running a modified version of the StringBot from my Mayan book. He has made some minor changes in the design as well as completely re-writing the program... and he's able to explain how and why he made these changes.
I have to admit, it's nice to see someone creating a real-world version of one of the book's five robots and actually running the challenge from the book.
Be warned: the video is over 5MB in size and is in MOV format. You can click here to view it and/or download and save it.

If you're a student or teacher and have a video of any of the other robots in action, please let me know. I'm also interested in whether you're incorporating the Design Journal Page into your projects - is it useful?
