The next SMART meeting will be in January. At our last meeting our
mini-challenge was candy manipulating robots, and we decided to continue with
the idea of manipulating objects, though this time it will be 4x4x4 LEGO cubes.
You can build your own cubes; here’s an image of what they look like:
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/David/SMART/Samples/4x4x4cube.gif. I will
bring a number of black and white cubes, perhaps some blue and or red ones as
well. And if you don’t like this particular cube, you are welcome to bring any
other type of cube you would rather manipulate instead, including cubes not made
out of LEGO.

Build a tower, build a wall, stack them or flip them, sort them, or juggle them,
whatever you like.

The meeting will be on January 25th, next year. I’ll provide more details as we
get closer to that date. In the meantime, you have plenty of time to build an
awesome robot!

Our next SMART meeting is coming up soon. Next weekend, on Saturday January
25th, we'll be meeting from 3-5pm in the Descartes room at Digipen.

The mini-challenge is to build a robot that does something with cubes. You can
use any cube you like, but a standard LEGO cube made out of bricks can be seen
in this illustration:

I will bring some white and some black cubes, and perhaps some red or blue ones
as well.
