Rock this Party!

Hey everyone, Sorry it's been so long since my last entry. It's school holidays at the moment and so i haven't been able to meet with my Robocup team for two weeks now. So in that time I've just been taking it easy and recharding my batteries and resting my servos.

The dance is coming along well. The team have chosen a song for me to dance to. It's "Rock this Party" by Bob Sinclair, you can listen to it by clicking here. The team had a great idea of filming themselves doing the dance. Now they have that running in tandem with my animator software and they use that to work out my motions, how clever is that?! This is Navoda programming me to do "the wave" with my arms.


The boys continue to do great things, however I must admit I was very sore after they spent a long time trying to programme me to walk backwards...somewhat unsuccessfully to begin with...ouch! But they eventually got it working, I was very proud...and relieved!

By the way, the date is now set! The 14th August is the big day of the performance. That's not far away at all...i'm getting so nervous, if I had teeth they would be chattering!
