Lego Robot

            Working with Legos to build the robot wasn't that difficult.This is because the instruction gives you step by step of what to do. So it was very easy in building the robot. There was some difficulty in the programing in the robot this is because the different NXT programmers was difficult to understand.

               The door alarm was the first robot we built and it was our first experience in using the robot. This helped us understand how the robot works and functions. The structure of the door alarm was very simple and the programing was also very easy. Once it was finally done we were proud and excited see the door alarm work. We continued with the steps which lead us to build the 5min robot, and it was just a car.

            Now the 5min robot was a little bit more complicated than the door alarm. This is because there was more steps to it and there were pieces that we did not have, which slowed us down. Because there were pieces missing we had to improvise, so I made a wheel to support the back of the 5min robot, in order for the light sensor to be closer to the ground. This help the light sensor read the black lines and I programmed the car to follow the line

BAT MAZE

Check out my new game called BAT MAZE. It was amazing the learning experience to learn how to build and make a game that actually functions. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/95135548 The first screenshot show how I started creating my first level Then the second screenshot is how I finished the first level. The third screenshot is my second level and its completed form.

Research on Careers in Technology      There are many different types of jobs in the tech industries, therefore I narrow it down to 3 different types of tech careers. The first career that I saw that I was interested in was Software Development jobs, which make people live so much easier. This is because it manages lots of files accurately and not only files, but many different programs everyone uses. What Software Developers do in their career is creating solution of your daily life, or simply just entertaining you when your bored. Creating apps like games or a GPS that helps you navigate, is what software developers do and more. I'm very interested in this type of field work, but it isn't the one I'm most interested in. Although software developing does seems the most promising path in the next 10 years.      Another type of Career that involves technology, that I did not know before this research, was Computer Systems Analysis. People who...
