is to complete a Arduino complete course, which I will be making in Udemy
Arduino Complete Course : Build 30+ projects step by step. With that I hope to learn and create different robotics projects.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I bought the course and I completed the first section of the course, which is Introduction to the Course. I learned how the first part of the course will include Progaming and Simulation. The next part will be Hardware, learning to control light and lasers. The third part includes learning how to control Automatic Robots.  The fourth part is app developing. And finally the fifth part is post controlled robots. I think I will be having a lot new stuff to learn about, and I will need to try my best to always keep myself on time. This is definitely going to be a very hard project, but I think I will be learning a lot with this too.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I was able to start the first part of the course, Programming and Simulation. And it has been very fun, i have been enjoying involving myself with computer science. And I believe that I'll be able to do a lot of progress by end of the course.
I was also able to download arduino programming on my computer, besides having my first contact with the Arduino Uno.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, was a very productive day, I was able to do my first programmimg code and I was also able to make a LED light blink, ans I was very proud of myself for being able to accomplish that. After being able to complete this first big achievement, I feel more confident to continue with my project for the rest of the semester. My next step will be completing the first part of the course, which is programming.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I did some more coding and programming, and this time instead of using only one LED I used three and they powered up perfectly. I am really happy for the progress I've been doing for the past few days.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I learned how to simulate Tinkercad Arduino uno, I thought it was really interesting getting to know simulation models, and I believe that this will be halping me a lot on the future. Besides that I also started learning about data bases, which are like commands on Arduino. I believe that I am on track of my project and I am feling confident moving forward.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, was a more difficult day were I had a a harder time understanding what the videos were saying and trying to explain. But at the end I was able to figure everything out perfeclty, I will be trying to catch up with a few videos before next class. Besides that, today was much more about focusing on strings and how to use them in Arduino what they meant and how to use them.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I learned about arrays, comparison operators and arimethick operators, which all are used in the Arduino programming. I am almost done with the first part of the course, and I am really happy about it because it shows the progress I've been doing over the past few classes. I am really excited with this project and I am very happy to be doing it.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I had a a harder time creating the program, but coding was still pretty easy to understand. So I have been facing some more difficulties but overall I have been overcoming my difficulties pretty quickly. So today I focused more coding, which has been funnier than I expected it to be.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I was able to learn a few new concepts on programming arduino, like for example I learned about Functions and Loops, types of loops (for, while, do-while). So I got ahead on videos, notes and practing arduino. I feel like I am being able to show progress in this class, and I am feeling confident.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, was a half day so I wasn't able to do much progress in the course during school time. But since I didn't want to stay behind I decided to work on the course at home, and I was really happy to do so afterwards, I used tinkercad to help me simulate the board since I didn't have the materials at home. Besides that I am starting to being able of solving programming problems all by myself based on the learning I gathered the last few weeks, and I am really happy about it.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I was able to complete two different problems. The first one I did a SOS morse code which functioned properly, and was really nice seing my progress in being able to create morse codes. The second problem was doing a traffic light, this problem was harder than the other one but I still managed to get it right and I was really happy about it. I am currently on section 97/245, which pretty good for my progress, meaning that I am achieving my goals. I feel like I have been doing progress and that I am on task.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I wasn't able to do so much progress, I was a little bit more distracted so for next time I will be needing to do more work. But for now I have created all the connections, so for next class is creating the code and testing it out.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I did the code for the chase effect, which was harder than I expected it to be, and yet I haven't yet been able to complete the project. Showing that it has been progressively becoming harder and harder. I can see better now what will be some of my challenges moving forward.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, even though we are in Carnival Break I decided to work on some extra projects using Tinkercad. Just so I will continue practing the codes and using simulation. I think this will be helpeful when I came back because I will be able to focus more on Part 2 - Hardware.

# data[].attributes.body
Yay! I was really happy today, and I was able to complete the chase effect project and I was really happy about it. But I had to seek Mr. Rodrigo for help, because I couldn't really get my way into getting the code with the wires to work, even though everything was right. But I was able find my way around it and get it to work.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, during class time I was able to test out all the codes I had created during the Carnival break. And all of them worked! I was really happy seeing my codes working meaning I was doing everything correctly.

# data[].attributes.body
I am officially half way done with the videos. Meaning that now I am looking at sensors and how to apply them in Arduino. Today, I was able to learn about two new sensors, the LDR (light sensor) and motion sensor.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I worked on more videos explaining sensors. I am now seeing about color sensor and have started the code. I feel like I have been doing a good amount of progress, and I feel confident that I will be able to finish my project on time.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I have completed the code for the color sensor project. At first I wasn't able to understand how it worked, but now that I have started seeing how it works it became much more clear to me. I also have completed about 1/3 which made me really happy, but it also means that it will be becoming harder and harded. Yet, I feel confident to continue with my work.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I was able to re-write the code for the color sensor in order to make it work. And it worked! Perfectly, I even showed Mr. Rodrigo the final product and he recorded it to me. The code in the video was wrong and I had to figure out on my own how to work it out.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I was able to write and test the line sensor code. It turned out perfectly, and I was really proud of myself and being able to see the progress I've been doing so far. I know the next steps are going to become harder and but I will be trying my best in other achieve all the goals proposed.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I was able to correct the code for ultrassoniz sensor and understand better how it actually works. Besides that I started working on my last sensor, that I will be seing which is the touch sensor. And since I had to restart arudino IDE I didn't have time to finish testing the code out.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I was able to re-write the code for the touch sensor in order to make it work. And it did work, I was so happy about that. I think its so amazing how everyhting makes sense. Now, I have moved on to the part of motors, I was able to go thorugh the instructions and now I will be learning more about motors.

# data[].attributes.body
Today since I started on the motors and there was one motor missing. I asked Mr. Rodrigo to buy me one, so he said it was supposed to arrive by next class. Since I've been able to keep up with my progress, therefore he said I could have a free class.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I wasn't able to do much progress since the motor hasn't arrived yet. I am reallly bummed about not having the motors, because it means I have to give sometime off my project which I have enjoying to do it very much. So instead today I decided to go over some other stuff on my project.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, again, I am still waiting for the motor to arrive, since it hasn't arrived yet. So I decided to keep reviewing everyhting I've done so far, so that as soon as the motor arrive I'll be able to continue with my project. I feel like this won't be putting me behind since I have made much progress.

# data[].attributes.body
Today the motor shield arrvied, and I was really happy about it. I was able to advance on about 3 videos, and now I am working on the code for the DC motor. I have noticed that it has become much more harder, but I am really liking the obstscle.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I got to know what order we wil be presenting. Ms. Cynde told us that we have about a month left to complete our project, and this starting worrying me, since I haven't started yet on any robots. But I believe that I have made very important progress along the way. So in order to try and complete the project I will be going to the Maker Space during my study hall perios, I talked to mr. Rodrigo and he said I should be fine.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I didn't have PEP so I went there during my study hall, I was able to accomplish building multiple motors to work together. And I was really happy about it because it meant that during two days I was able to completely finish the modules on DC motors.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I was able to do all lessons for the Servo motor, so my next steps will be building a chasis and working on the coding for the first robot. It will be much work for the next few weeks but I am really enjoying so I believe I will be able to finish.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, even though I don't have PEP I decided to focus on finding 3D printed chassis models. I was able to find the one in the picture above, which I will most likely be using. I have also showed already to Mr. Rodrigo the design and he it was good to use.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, I started to print the chasis materials I am going to be needing. And cut out the base for the robot car, using wood because I thought it would look nice and different if I did that. I think I am doing some really nice use of my time and I feel like maybe I won't be able to complete all my robots but I will have at least one to present to the rest of the class.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I found out that the obejcts didn't print becuase the 3D printer crashed. I know that I am a little bit short on time left I have but I believe that I will be able to finish at least one robot which is pretty amazing considering this is my first time where I am doing robotics. Other than that I cut polished the chasis wood base today.

# data[].attributes.body
So today I re-printed with Mr. Rodrigo's help the aditional pieces I will be need to complete the obbstacle avoiding robot. Other than that I tested the size os the base out and it worked perfectly. Finally I started in the code that I will use for this robot.

# data[].attributes.body
Even though I didn't have PEP today I instead decided to there during my Study Hall period so I could see the 3D printed shapes and sand it out. So that tommorrow I can move on from that and focus on drilling and how I am going to support the chasis.

# data[].attributes.body
Today in PEP I was able to work on drilling the base and so starting to attach the 3D bases to the actual base, which was really fun. At first Mr. Rodrigo just gave me all the materials, and since I had never really used a driller or something like that, it was a really great experience and I really enjoyed having this amazing opportunity. I did do two complete holes and they worked perfectly, I will be trying to do the next two before next class in my study hall period.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I didn't have PEP class, but again in my study hall period I decided to go to the maker space. I finished the four drills in placing the motor under the base and it looked really awesome. I tested it out and it seems like it is secure, which makes me feel really happy about it, especially since it is the first time I work with robotics and coding.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I watched the video on assemblying the robot, and it was really helpful. So now I officially feel like I can build the actual robot. I worked on conecting the ultrassonic sensor with the servo motor, nextly I worked on placing the double sided tape on the Arduino so I can fixed it on the chasis base. Other than that I still need to work on two bigger holes in the base so I can place the wires organized. Other than that I believe that I have been doing a good work in general, in building my first ever robot.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I asked Mr. Rodrigo's help in probing the motors with the wires, I will be needing that for the 4 motors. Other than that I also worked on drilling two bigger holes to pass the wires through so I wouldn't have a messy chasis. I am really excited on how my robot is going especially because it is a project I always wanted to try but I had never had the opportunity before.

# data[].attributes.body
Again, today I didn't have PEP today but I decided to work on polishing my chasis robot. I did some work on setting up the ultrassonic sensor so it will be over the robot in locating the object in front. I put some double sided tape and glue to fixate the parts together.

# data[].attributes.body
So today at class I worked on the final details in getting the chasis ready. I am running out of time, and this is very scary for me, but I still believe I will be able to finish it in time to present it to the rest of the class. Other than that I believe that in this final steps it's been very challenging for mr in having such a short time left to complete the robot.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I finalized the chasis, I am so happy about it! Finally I completed my first chasis, and I was really proud of how it looked like. I need to admit that I went through a lot of challenging moments but I was able to overcome them.

# data[].attributes.body
I traveled to NR, and I need to finish my project by tomorrow. Throughout these past few days I have worked on the coding process, but I need to admit that I am afraid of them not working tomorrow when I come back to school. Still, I have completed the code and the chasis is ready, in order for everything to work I need to connected them and hopefully they will both be working.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I had PEP and I was able to upload the code and it worked! Yay, I was so so so happy about it because it means that I was able to finish my project and I will have something done to demonstrate to the class. My next step is working on my presentation to present to the class on the 16th.

# data[].attributes.body
Even though I didn't have PEP today I went there during my study hall to try and create a pathfor my robot to go through. It is very interesting seeing how the robot tends to chose his paths, since sometimes it tends to bump into things. Overall the robot avoids obtascles.

# data[].attributes.body
Today I presented my presetation, and it went great! I was able to explain all project throughout and explain what my project meant, while reflecting on celebrations and difficulties faced. I still don't my grade but overall I believe everything went really well.
