Haha, rem the song that goes like the title? Well, we could have sung that after the robot competition on Friday. Champion Stacker was the competition name, and so is title that our robot won. Spasm King, the Champion Stacker. Stacking a record of 12 blocks in under 3 minutes, that was a job well done. A spectacular job from our team of 7: Lester, Chee Wei, Shaun, Willy, Adrian, Guorong, and not forgetting, myself... Hahaha...
Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting to you ME3102 Champion Stacker 2007: Spasm King!!!
Erm, don't ask me why there's a flower on top of it. Supposedly aesthetic. My friend asked me, how come a flower for a 'male' robot. I said, it was given to him by his 'her' after he won the competition!! Hahaha....
And a tribute to our team and supervisor. A pity Shaun wasn't around in the photo.
A photo with the runner-up team, also led by the same supervisor.
And some stupid shots we took with the robot after the competition.
It's been a far cry from the time when we first started the testing phase of the robot. It sucked the hell out of our lives. Spent so much time on it. Remembere the time when we had problem to get the motors to run properly on HandyBoard. It's been a long way. Well done!!!
Well, the competition was hot. Literally too. It was held outside the Design Lab where there was no aircon, and there were so many people. 95% guys, so the ME gers there were all complaining. Hot surroundings bring 'chou nan ren'. Wahahahaha.. Just take a look. And at the idea of my friend, try doing this: 'Where's Jerry?' Prof Jerry Fuh is the course coordinator. Hahaha..
There were many robots around that day. All sorts and mechanisms. All sorts of stacking algorithms too. Some had names, like ours and Edric's. Edric's robot had the most interesting name. Ha, it's called Meiyan. Try asking him why. He's been shot and suan since the couple of days just before the competition. Here's a showcase of some of the robots around that afternoon.
