Our next SMART meeting is in two weeks, on September 29th. We'll meet in the
Michelangelo room of Digipen, from 2-5pm.

The mini-challenge is to build a dancing robot.

It must be able to do four actions:
- turn left 90-degrees
- turn right 90-degrees
- move forward six inches
- and do some special action

The first three commands should be as accurate as possible, and need to be done
in 3 seconds or less, and the special action needs to take 10 seconds total, and
it needs to be back in the starting position when done. Think of the special
action as a little jig that it does. It can spin, twist, wiggle, whatever you
want as long as there is some movement involved. For testing purposes, write
four separate little programs using NXT-G to do each of the actions.

At the meeting we'll create a combined program that will link all these actions
together so that all the robots can all dance in sync with one another.

See you in two weeks!

PS: There won't be a competition at BrickCon due to lack of interest. If you are
planning on bringing a robot for display, though, please email me within the
next week. Don't forget to remove the spambot from the address!
