Well, the prototyping competition has come and gone. I'm not going to point any fingers, but the tallest member of our group broke the color sensor (either in soldering or in transport), rendering the sensor nonfunctional. It appears that the resistor set-up prevented the arduino from discriminating voltages, and thus, identifying colors. So, we're going to take the robot back to the shop to see if we can iron out any kinks before the Sullivan Science Colloquium on the 12th. Unfortunately, this may include removing the sensor from being mounted on the chassis and placing it as a stand-alone box.
And as always, for your enjoyment and curiosity.
