Today we presented our final robots to the class.  Everyone went and explained what their robot was supposed to do, what problems they encountered and gave a demonstration of the robot.  I felt that mine did fairly well considering everything.  The line followers were giving me trouble, the robot would shake back and forth as it moved along and sometimes it would get it self stuck and I would have to give it a bump to start it back up again.  The IR sensor and arm worked as intended though, which I was happy about.  I have a short video of the robot below.  Since I didn't have a miniature garbage can for it to sense and pick up I used my hand to let it know there was an object there.
