Weekly Report 5 (6/9/05)

This week I received everything ordered last week. Upon receiving the sensors I interfaced them with my board through a breadboard. This enabled me to learn how they worked and verify that each sensor was functioning properly. I have been unable to experiment with the motors and wheels as I have not yet received the wheel hubs or H-Bridge. I am expecting these to be delivered by the end of the week. I also got my website up and running and designed and cut out my platform. I have yet to assemble the platform, but don’t expect many problems doing so.
