My final project

--Originally published at my programming blog

So at the end we didn’t do a program that could catch the movement of a hand (my last post about my final project), because we didn’t found the sensors, so we decided to do a little robot, we obtained the instruction to make it here. (in this link you can find the instructions, materials and the code).

First we ordered the circuit online and we found a code and we understood and changed some things.

Then once we have the circuit and the micro servo motors, we attached everything together and we connected the robot to the computer and we run the program, the final result was that robot danced.

The robot dancing:

My final project

This blog post is about my final project, my team is made of two other students, and we decided we are going to make a glove with flex sensors that when connected to an Arduino and the computer will show the movements that are being made with the glove with the program that we will do.

We also have another idea, but right now I’m going to talk about this one.

We found this idea in a page of projects made by Arduino, there were a lot of ideas and we chose this idea. The idea was to make a robotic hand, but a teacher recommended us that first we should only do the glove with the flex sensors and with an Arduino and the computer, see if the program registers the movements of the glove.

Right now we have some resistors and the Arduino, and first to test it we did a program were a led would turn on. And we found a store where we can find all the materials, like the flex sensors, Xbee module, etc.

This is the original project and the the student that made it:

Hello World!

The first thing that came into my head when the teacher showed us how to run a program that says “hello world”was:

This is going to be hard!!

I’m really excited! It looks a little bit hard but also really interesting, I kind of feel like a hacker of a movie. I’m really looking forward to be able to understand c++ better, I was always interested in programming but it looked very difficult, so now I’m a little bit scared, because the language looks confusing, but I promise I will try my best to understand it.
