Bollywood Dancing In My Room

You've seen my robot went nuts and spinning round and round, despite on how I've programmed it should be.

Here's the video again


The next day, I was having my lunch in front of my laptop. A bug,



this is it, the star for today,

landed on my desk, and it starts to...



SPIN!!!

The same way like how my robot did it!

I swear I did not played any Hindi songs when these two incidents occurred. I hope that I'm not the next one that start to spin round and round without any reasons.

My Robot's Donut Drifting

In case you are wondering why I did not updated my blog for almost a week, this is what I was doing...



If you have watched Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift, you still remember the scene where Han was driving his Mazda RX7 doing a doughnut around a hot chick's car and win the phone number? (I'm not sure whether Impak Maksima has the same scene or not *roll eyes*



Well, my robot can do it too, but without the hot chicks and some smoke...



Actually this is not how I program it to be, it just behaved on its own. Perhaps there's short circuit in its brain that makes it gone crazy (pun intended).

As there is only 3 more weeks to hand up the report, and troubleshooting the circuit is very time consuming, so I...

Redraw the PCB layout...

Re-fabricate the PCB...

Re-drill hundreds of holes on the new PCB...

Solder hundreds of pins and legs...

Re-test the new circuit (still having some problems thou)...

And the best part is,

I did all this with a swelling eye which I have difficulties to fully open it and my visionary is blur.

FYP is really killing me slowly.

Oh, and by the way, the new circuit is a lot tidier than the jungle you seen in the picture :P
