Hi guys,

I have finaly received the parts ordered from BrickLink and I am about to finish the third robot. But there is something interesting that I want to say first. I have challenged myself on building a RIS only robot that will do the job. The good news is I have succeded! I am using one motor for driving following the line with the light sensor and the second motor to grab/lift the trash can. One touch sensor detects the trash can and the other is detecting the arm position. Cool, huh? It will not be able to U turn to pick the 6th can but it works! Now I’m going to work on my pneumatic-arm-double-spybots robot wich it turns out to be a monster... I hope I’ll get some time next week to finish them all!

Happy Easter for everybody!

Gabe
