  Readers,

   Today, CDT Nelson, CDT Smith, and myself began our AIAD project. Having been able to enjoy the German (Duetch) culture for the last few day, it was finally time to roll up our sleeves and get to sodering. By about noon all gorups had finished the chasis for their newly dubbed "UbberKline Bot" and be gain to move in to our CDT Smith's, our computer science major, favorite part... Slinging some code. The groups, whose ranks had been thickened from 1 to 3 each with our 7 new German friends, worked on integerating a XBEE wireless transmitor/reciver in to our hand build remotes and "UbberKline"s, attempted to program the power supply to the wheel motors (based on current and desired position), and exchanged both vocabulary as well as cultural norms. We just got back from a birthday party for German Student in my group. More to follow as we continue on our adventure, so check back daily for updates, Bitte. 

   

  Respectfully
