Robots tend to like to run away when you're debugging their software. Simple stands can help keep them captive #robot #robotics #piwars @Hacky_Racers @donkey_car @diyrobocars donstechstuff.com/robot_stan…

I really don't know why Indians are still falling for this Hyperloop scam. I don't mind private individuals wasting their resources, but this is literally funded by taxpayer money..
🚨 IIT Madras students have developed a prototype of futuristic travel Hyperloop project.

Thank you to all #PiWars organizers and competitors for making this a great year of learning and fun for the Barn Rats. We had fun making our robot, and even more fun watching how everybody else approached the challenges. Here's a playlist of our videos: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL…

So at the end of a long day of filming #PiWars videos, we got a little bit silly and tried something a little bit "different". Team Barn Rats ROCKS ! youtube.com/watch?v=_8-b3rTM…

How heavy is that #PiWars Hungry Cattle feed? Well, apparently too heavy for our current dispenser design... Check it out at the Barn Rats blog site piwars22.donstechstuff.com. Looks like its back to the drawing board !

Preview of coming #PiWars Hungry Cattle attractions from team Barn Rats. Video of tests coming probably tomorrow, after a little more assembly. Hope it's not going to be a gag reel...
