Robot Competition

We got back from Munich and were pushed full speed into completeing our robot projects for the competition on Monday. We worked as hard as we could to get our robots done on time, but overall there was a lot left to do when the competition finally came around. We found out quickly about the dire need to test our robots extensively before putting them to work. As such, only one team actually suceeded in capturing a ball, and a few others came close. The winning team recieved champagne and the rest of us got Swiss chocolate for our efforts.

We'll be leaving for Bern and Geneva tomorrow, and then stopping in Zermatt before coming back home.
