On 9th December 2019, we attended a Robokar Workshop that had been held at Active Learning Lab N28. This workshop was organized by the Robokar’s representative. Throughout the workshop, Dr.Haswadi supervised all of us in the lab to ensure that all of us involved actively in the workshop. The Robokar’s representative introduced us about their organization and taught us of the basic skills in doing arduino. The moment we weere informed that we were going to attend the workshop, we were super excited to experience and learn new knowledge that we have never been exposed to. Not to forget, this new knowlege and skills could be use after we graduate from UTM which will help us in the future industries. After we attended the workshop, we found it is important to gain new knowledges and skills because it will surely beneficial to us.
This workshop also gives a good impact to us as we were introduced about the RoboKar model and the way to code to run the program. Firstly, the representative introduced us about some of the codes that will make the model move. At this point, the model use sensor and the code of ReadLineSensor will activate the sensor which will finally move the model according to the value read in binary. We were also exposed to new problem solving skills that needed to think as creative as we can so that it would work properly. The moment we finished encoded our program, we have some competitons with the other group to test our model and we found out that our model work properly but it was not fast enough as other group.
In conclusion, we realized that critical way of thinking will improve our program not only that but we also knew that it would help us in so many other ways. This encouraged us to have the urge to reach our goal and dreams passionately. Some of us also interested to become one of the members of the Robokar. This shown this workshop succesfully attract the student’s interest thus the generation will always continue with more bombastic ideas and products. Lastly, we would like to thank Dr.Haswadi Hassan also the Robokar’s representative that guided us throughout this workshop.
