Recycle Center

In my school, we've made a Recycle Center using Legos. It was very cool, we finished it in about three hours and a half. After we finished, we presented it to the third and fourth grades. It's part of the project "O Rio dos Sinos é Nosso". It's a project to save the Rio dos Sinos, a river of the city that I live.

Comunicação:
Washer -> Garbage Truck: Ultrasonic Sensor
Garbage Truck -> Selector Mat: Hand
Selector Mat -> Compactor: Bluetooth
Selector Mat -> Bulldozer: Hand

In some days this project will appear at the local newspaper!

P.S. My brothers destroyed my secret truck :(

EDIT: They deleted the photos from my school site!

Turing Machine #3

The Turing Machine Project will be stopped for a while, because I have no idea of how to make the tape. Until I get an idea, I will be making another things. BTW, there's a secret sentence hidden in this post.
I'm makeing a truck that will be ready tonight!!!
 

Turing Machine #2

Today I will explain some things about my Turing Machine project.
First: I will post in the form of a diary. I will do that every two days until I finish the project.
Second: The Turing Machine wil only do addicion.
Third: It will be programmed in NXT-G (I will start to use NXC too, I didn't like the new frimware. It don't has the view function)
Fourth: It will be the thrid LEGO Turing Machine in the WORLD!!!
Fifth: There's no sixth

Turing Machine

I will start the Turing Machine project next week, and try to finish it before August 1st. If you have any idea, please comment.

Race Car

That's my new project, the race car. I've disassembled Taurus to make that car. It's not very fast, but it's cool. It uses two NXT motors for traction and one for steering. Here's a photo:

A video is coming soon ;D

Who I am

In this post I will be only presenting me to you. No new robots, no new news.
First of all, and more important, I'm brazillian. So, English is not my mother language and the LEGOs here are very expensive. The Mindstorms kit, for example, costs here R$2.000, what's arround U$$ 1.200. That makes me not to build giant things, or at least, beautiful things.
Second, I'm eleven, almost twelve (may 27th is my birthday), so I can't buy many things of the internet, just a few when the dollor price is low.
Third, I didn't have any LEGO classes, just once, when I learn on how to play with bluetooth and variables.

That's it
Pedro

Some days ago I recived a challenge from Bruno. Make a turing machine. What could I say other than

 Now I will try to make one. I estimate that I will finish it only in three months.
