Finishing the project. By Michael
In this last week, we worked in the project only one day because we had a holiday, and another day we went to work on the computers.
In that day my group worked in the case, we added two brackets because the case was brushing with the wheels and we solved a little problem with the switches.
The next week we are going to do the antennas and we will work on aesthetic details in the case.
This week by Roberto
This week we didn´t advanced much because we haven´t got class Tuesday and Thursday.
On Wednesday we pasted leather to the engine; I burned the leather to prepare it and then we pasted it to the engine with silicone.
Then we put the wheels and we checked if the cucabot walked. The next day we are going to check if the cucabot runs.
Alejandro cut the balloon in two and checked which part is better to use it for the case. The next day we going to paint the case in shark grey and put on a fin.
To finish we only need to attack the case and put the antennas, because we have had problems with that.
I think in two weeks we will finish the project.

Fresh news by Herón
We only need to finish the Cucabot antennas, so it stops and turns when finding fences jajaja.
In fact, I gather that in 2 sessions we will finish, I’ll try to find something in the street to be used as a better material for the antennas.
I will keep you informed 🙂
My february post, by José Miguel
These weeks we have advanced very much in the project. It is already almost finished.
We still have small changes to do so we will end it soon. I hope I will get a good mark and my friends too.
Very good work to all my colleagues:)

Antennas are disheartening!!! By George!
Hello, It´s George again,
I think this will one of the last posts I will do, The cockroachbot is 100% done.
Antennas were a big enemy during the robot building process, they had to have a correct position to work properly. They also hadn’t got to be too heavy or light because it will surely affect to their function.
The facts are that:
-The material has to be malleable but also hard to shape it. Examples: Brass, tin…
-The material has to send a sure signal to the component once a time it crashes with something.-(or someone)-
During all this recently year -(2013)- The damned antennas have freakin´me for hours!
But finally, at least , we have beaten them
Now we can finally try the robot in its mission of walking avoiding obstacles!

The week… By Kenia
This week Jorge and Jose Miguel have completed the circuit but had little problems putting the antennas. They finally managed to fit them. We have tried the cucabot and it works flawlessly.
Me I have started painting the case. I agreed with my group to paint it as if it was a ladybug!
The Project Evolution by Alejandro
This week has been a very good one.
Every group were working very hard in their projects.
In my group, we were working in the mobility of the robot.
Roberto was working in the antennas. He was holding the antennas in the high part of the project (Crashing cucabot).
He finished the week with me because we were making more resistant the axis of the wheels .
Ariadna was working in the wheels. She was putting leather around the wheels to make them sure. She finished the week in the wheels because they need wood to increase the weight.
I was working in the platform.
I was putting pieces of wood in the high part of the platform to hold the other part above them. I finished the week with Roberto in the axis of the wheels.
In this week, we were looking in Internet more ideas for this project and I found lots of pages very interesting.
This is a blog of a girl who wrote in june of 2011 about the pegatortas robot.
Developping the CockroachBot. By iVáN
As you know, my group and me we are doing a car. So this week we have painted the case in white. We have also created the wheels with cork. For tires we took some pictures of the brand OZ Racing. They seem as you can see in the image.
We also added spoilers, bumpers, bonnet … and we only need now to put the stickers.
