ALPHA REX INSTRUCTIONS
Recently I've had an urge to build Alpha Rex. Unfortunately it doesn't show you how to build him in the NXT Mindstorms Building Guide book. I looked for weeks and now have found it on a website. It consists of a step by step guide. The website is http://www.active-robots.com/products/mindstorms4schools/building-instructions/Build-AlphaRex.pdf.
LIGHT SENSOR
Today me and my comrades programmed a NXT robot with Ultrasonic and Light sensors to follow a circuit consisting of a square line made out of black tape. It worked perfectly and the robot completed over 8 laps! A video will be available soon.
Cheers!

ROBOTICS CLASSES
Far out: I am teaching another 3 robotics classes! All 3 graduated in the past 3 days. My friends and I have come up with some mad robot designs, including a digital clock, card dealer, domino train, bin emptier and more!

ROBOCUP 2008
In August we presented at Robocup Australia, at the Roundhouse, University of NSW. It was amazing how many dances there were and complex robot designs! Some of my friends enjoyed watching secondary schools peforming. I noticed that at least three-quarters of the dances didn't go as planned due to some carless team member having the robot a centimetre off where it was supposed to be or accidently running the wrong program. Here are some videos!
ROBOCUP PEFORMANCE
Here are some pictures of my fellow team-mates setting up and double-checking every-thing. At the top there is a picture of a massive robt created from special emulator and mod chips, combined with silicon data chips and memory cards. I witnessed a robot bash open its opponent!
