Hi! If your reading this then you should probably keep your mind open and just roll with what i am telling you. My team attends North East Magnet High School in Wichita KS. I have an interest in Control systems and electronics engineering. My teammate Austin Slater has always been adept at mechanical engineering and physical design. What we intend to do and in fact what we have already had some success with is designing, building, programming, and TEACHING. a humanoid robot. We are using neural network concepts to encode a Long-Short term memory neural network. This allows the robot to have thought and even memories in the form of "Physical" Connections between the "Neurons" and the signals being bounced around the "Brain". The bot has treads for mobility and is humanoid from the waist up. The bot has already learned to avoid sharp drops or "Cliffs" such as a table's edge. It has learned to make a punching motion and lean back to avoid being hit. (HINT. we built two bots to simulate a fight with each other). We still have farther to go but we are on a steady way. any help, advice, things you would like to see, or just cool comments, post them here. thank you
