a) We were partially successful in our task. We managed to get the project to run and the ball to launch and in our test trial the ball hit the target. However when we ran during the actual graded run, we needed the tap the machine twice to get the project to run smoothly and the ball just nearly missed the target. Overall I thought it was a success.
b) Looking back at the process I hunk we should have started with the ramp and electrical components first. These were the two hardest parts of the process and it would have been nice to knock these two things out early. We also could have drew a more detailed outline and followed it better so that we wouldn't have to think about what we should do next and waste some of our time.
c) Some key things we learned while do this project was the importance of group work and listening and trying others ideas. Personally at some points in the process some of my group members would suggest a specific idea and I would think there was no way it could work. I kind of ignore the idea and then they would go on and work on the piece they wished to add. It turns out that the piece they worked on was actually really cool and a great addition to the project. Learning to accept help from others was a crucial part in completing this project.
