Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Mentor to me: We've dumped the idea of using a potentiometer on the ladder (our tube manipulator), as it was going to be too complex to implement. Instead, we'll be using a hybrid rotary encoder/potentiometer, along with a limit switch to define a home position.
Person 1: Is it just me or does the ladder look like a duck?
Me: Yeah, it kinda does
Person 2: Then let's name the robot "Quack Attack!"
Person 1: But what about the minibot? It needs a name too!
Me: How about "The Duckling"
Person 1: Quack Attack and The Duckling! Just like Batman and Robin!
*laughter around the room*
Another name that has been floating around for our robot is "Duck Norris"
Another suggestion for our robot's name has been "Ian", as that's the first name of our staff advisor and our head programmer. In the words of our head of electronics:
"Ian, go fix Ian. Ian broke it again."
