Today in class i finished up what i hadn't from my robot.
After a few parts from the professor and some time and elbow grease, i finally got it running.
This is the finished product:

After that i got to familiarize myself with transistors and the many things they can do. They are similar to relays, but a lot more versatile. This activity had me connecting it to an LED and having two exposed wires. When i touched my fingers (from the same hand) to these wires the LED turned on because my fingers were used as a filler between the connections.

After that was done, i got to work on another of our tools that, according to professor mason, we will be using a lot throughout the class. This was our Logic Probe, which worked similarly to our multimeter, but was a faster way of getting the job done in some cases. This activity had us putting together almost everything we had learned so far to build a simple piece of genius.
This was my finished project.

I did not get around to soldering the last piece for today, but I heard it only took a couple of minutes so hopefully i could have it done tomorrow early.
