Awards, medals, robot disassembly etc-

Sorry guys if I haven't got back to you on many of your emails, a bit swamped with the finals! I will be in the lab 5-007 on Wed, Dec 10, ~5-6pm.

Here are answers to many queries I got:

Medals/Awards - Winning Teams:
If you are the winning team -Tim Howard or Messi Striker- Yes, I found your medals! You guys/ any team member can come and collect it from me on Wednesday at 5pm in the lab.

Messi Strikers/Grass Kickers/ Julio Cesar/JFK: I did find your awards (I think)- ball signed by department head. IF you don't already have it, you can grab it from me at 5pm tomorrow(Wed, 10)

Robot disassembly:
I will be at the lab by 5pm latest, if you want to come and disassemble your robot.

Lost Stuff:
You are welcome to come over and look for things you might have left out here (wireless mouse, charger etc). I haven't had the time to look, but feel free to hunt around!

Cheers, and good luck on finals!

Motor Collection Update

Hello everyone,
Please email the TAs before you head over to the lab to take your robot apart. The TAs are not always in the lab.
Also please email/show the TAs where you will leave your motors and dongles so we can cross your names off the list.

We recognize that you all are busy finishing up the term and studying for the exams. If you are unable to take your robot apart before the original deadline, please email the staff, we can give extensions to the team that requests them.

Thank you so much for helping the staff with taking the motors off the robot.

Good luck with your exams and finishing off your term!

2.12/2.120 Final Project Robot Disassembly

Hello 2.12/2.120 students.
Congratulations on finishing the final project!
I hope everyone enjoyed the project.
As we are wrapping up the term, we need you all to disassemble the robots you built and return the Dynamixel motors and the dongles to the TAs.
Make sure the TAs cross your team's name off from the Dynamixel return list.
If your team's name is not crossed off from the list by 16TH OF DECEMBER, there will be a penalty on your final grades.

Thank you all!
