So the big day came...our Finch Dance Off.
If you remember, about a month ago, I had to spend a week with a robotic Finch, trying to program it to dance. I mentioned it on a post, HERE. Well, I was probably a total failure at that, but I ended up pulling it off in the end.
What I did do, is that I chose a piece of music that matched the racedriver program I had to use as an example. So the subtle modifications I made to that program, kept to that basic programming.
What I hoped, was that when the Finch did its thing, it would match the music and the two parts would actually work together.
When I ran the program and the music on dance day, my programming looked OK and it did work with the music. Win!
I couldn't believe it!
The teacher (seen in the 2nd photo) had us text to vote, similar to what people do for things like American Idol.
In great news for me, I actually got a vote!
I was totally fine with the result and I did learn a bit about programming and mostly how to persevere and pull success out of the jaws of failure.
Isn't that what life is all about. :-)

ReplyDeleteToo bad I couldn't show it off to you. But I was happy and that was important to me.
