Reflection: Write two full paragraphs describing (a) the fundamental physics behind the operation of your robot and
(b) what you learned from this project.
For the first paragraph, focus on concepts that we covered in class during the fluids and pressure unit. How are
these concepts responsible for the agility of your robot? How did these principles allow you to achieve various desired
movements?
What I am most interested in for the second paragraph is what you learned during the construction and operation of
your robots that you would take with you if asked to build another robot. Describe what parts of your robot were
unsuccessful. How would you change them? Which elements were successful? Why? In watching all the robots
perform, did your peers introduce particularly innovative elements or designs? How would you combine these
elements to construct the perfect syringe robot?
