Hmm.. I'm not really sure what to write about.

MoVo the intern here to tell you hey!
I've had this page open for about an hour. I'm not really sure how to do this...It's not you, it's me. But I'm breaking up with you....Well, not exactly, today is my last day for the summer and during the school year I only can come in during weekends so you guys will be hearing from me again I promise.
What it's been like a month? That's pretty crazy, Summer is going by so fast. I'm going to school soon too!
And after this year college! Here's to hoping I get into the schools I want to go to! But that's another blog entry, on another blog (by the way you should check out my tumblr, here)--It's a pretty sweet blog, you get to hear me complain about some stuff, and you get to see what tickles my fancy.

We're still going to be making progress on our project, I'm going to keep you guys updated. Because I'm nice like that. Ha, and it's my job.  Um today we're just editing our footage from Wednesday's shoot. I feel like I should give you guys a pizza or something, this entry is boring. I showed you guys the pictures I took already. I don't know what to do now. HERE. I'm going to find another picture.

Before I forget, check out our facebook page and like it! Here!

I thought this picture to be quite humourous.
But anyways, cool things are happening over here in Robot-Kayak land! I hope you guys think so too!

Well, I hope you have a lovely rest of the day.
MoVo, over and out.

LOOK WHAT I JUST FOUND.


It's a legit "funny kayak" picture. Get it?

Stephan, Daniel, & Todd



Me, acting lost.

MoVo the intern being a weirdo

Fishing again


Some intense kayaking from Daniel and Todd

Yay kayaking and fishing! Here's some picture of what the device is; not as attractive, but you know It's still good to know, you know?

Quick release, automatic rudder controller.

It's all Gucci, up in Robot-Kayak land.

Dataczar represent, yo.


Hey there robot-kayak lovers, and other beings of the universe!

Your favourite intern here to tell you our video shoot went very well.

T'was a stressful afternoon, but all in all we got some good footage, so hopefully we can produce a quality, final video for y'all. We are most likely going to have another shoot, the date and details are TBA stage. There was just a lot of talk about it.

Also, pictures are coming your way I promise. I made sure to take some, and maybe I'll be able to you guys some videos, but there's no promising.

I'm designing a new piece today, so hopefully it turns out well like the other piece I made. Fingers crossed!

Well, thanks for reading today, sorry it was kind of boring, but here's the song of the day to make it a little more exciting! Bringing it back with some Beirut. Woot, woot!

WOOO! WOO! WOO! WOOO!

The day is finally here. It's August 6th!
I. Me. The intern. MoVo. And Stephan are going to go kayaking! Woo Hoo!

We're shooting a video, yeah that's right a video on our cool, new, contraption. You're going to be in awe, cause this my friend, is going to be EPIC. I might be building it up, but in actuality I think it is pretty neat and I hope you do, because I help make it in a way. (Don't tell anyone I'm listening to One Direction while writing this...shhhhhh). Gettin' pumped, yo!

Reading is hard...that's why there are pictures!!

This one is just for kicks, cause it's pretty funny. Haaa, got me to laugh.

But anyways, we're it water proof so, if that picture about happens, all of our stuff will be solid. It would be pretty terrible, so yeah I'm printing out some things to put on to our contraption, so good things are happening. I know I posted like an hour ago, but stuff goes down in an hour dawg.

Tuesdays and Cool Vibes

MoVo the intern here to say "Ayyyyyy"

Basically, it never looks like I'm working on anything because I'm always on some blog site. For example this one, or tumblr. Also, I always have spotify up when I leave the computer, but I assure you I'm working on something almost always.
So tomorrow is the big video shoot, and guess who gets to sit on the kayak while the whole contraption does its thing, this girl right here.
I'm slightly stressing over on how everything is going to go, and such. We're making a twitter and a facebook page so be sure when that happens to like and follows us. What's this we stuff? I am making a facebook and a twitter(that's what I'm in charge of basically). Cause who wouldn't want to read my witty, lovely comments on kayaks. Be prepared for some kayak puns, yo.

Anyways! After this entry I have to go 3D print this part and you know, I am ALWAYS amped on being able to 3D print, I love it soooooooooooo much. Ha. Okay, maybe I am exaggerating, but seriously it is pretty rad.

Wel,l thanks for reading today! In summary we're all working pretty hard to get this video shoot rolling and we are all on track. Everything is looking pretty excellent, and I can't for you guys to see it, because then you guys will be just as thrilled as I am. I do not think you fully understand what it is, so the video will definitely help with that.

Mkay I hope you have a lovely day, night, and life.
Your favourite intern, out.

PS the cool vibes part involve the tunes I'm listening to, bands like
  • Girls
  • Best Coast
  • Com Truise
  • Mister Lies

Don't we all love Mondays?

Because I know, that you know, that I know, that you know: I love Mondays. Or do I? You don't really know. Just kidding I would never lie.

Anyways, your favourite robot people coming back at cha! It's a new dawn, it's a new day (ha, see what I did there?) Well, anyways, things are moving along very nicely over here in Southern California, we just had some summer showers, it's been really humid, so I hope that stops, but things are pretty lovely.

You know the piece 3D I  printed the last time I made an entry well, we put it on our smaller of the two kayaks and it fits, and works!! Woo! I am very proud of myself. This makes things way easier! We just have to attach all these important electronic stuff and we are golden.

OUR VIDEO SHOOT IS ON WEDNESDAY. HOLY COW, MAN, GIRL, CHICKEN. ANYBODY, ANYTHING.
 Then you guys are going to see me on a boat, and then see our rad kickstarter. Let's just say it's going to be a long, long week. It's okay though!

Oh hey there, just so you know I am the intern, I don't know if I am supposed to disclose this information, but I think you guys should know...I started applying for college!! Yay!

Anyways, thanks for reading.
Your favourite robot-yak people out.

I AM THRILLED.


Can you tell? But when am I not thrilled to be honest. Always amped about something, tis life.

HA, well I just 3D printed this part for one of our kayaks, it looks SUPER rad. I'm just stoked because making new things is always fun. YES OUR KAYAKS ARE GOING TO BE THE BOMB!!!
Just you wait and see. I was talking to our director today and we have some fun, good ideas for our video shoot in a couple weeks, so stay tuned for that.

Thanks for reading.
From your favourite person on your robot kayak team, MoVo.

Another day in kayaking land.



We have made huge progress with our app. We have it connected to our rudder controller so we can control it with our phones, opposed to our hands. Swwwwwweeeeeeet! So since we have it connected we are ready for our video shoot on August 6th. We are currrently working out the small, few kinks. So things are going well.  Our robot is going to be super dope! I hope you guys realize that because once you see it, you're going to be like how'd they do that? As magical as this picture and cause damn, that's pretty magical.




Thanks for reading, stay tuned for awesome pictures and videos!

Work it.


Our design team is on it!

Killin' it.

Not really though, killing is bad...You know, the expression. HA

Hey there dudes & dudettes!

ANYWAYS.
Another day at work!..Means more progress! Our project-prototype is coming swimmingly and smoothly. Woo! The excitement is real. BE AS THRILLED AS I AM!
There will be pictures to come. And you will be just as excited as I am! The video I posted earlier is, and the idea of what it is going to look like and do. Imagine being able to move that, but with your phone! No touch  hand-rudder control. Pretty neat stuff,  dudes.

Tuesday, July 22, 2014

You know.

Robots are so dope.
You know you love them, how could you not?

I love robots so much that I'm going to be about my lov,e and make  robot-kayak.

Yeah that's right, a robot kayak. I'm excited for everyone to see it. Our video shoot is getting closer and closer, and you'll be able to see the magical things happening in robot-yak land.  

Hey. It's cool looking.


It's pretty cool...At least I think so.

Monday, July 21, 2014

Monday...Funday? Um, yes!




Here are some photos to keep you updated. We're in the midst of making it look pretty for our shoot. Woo hoo! This is going to be so cool! We're still trying to figure what to name this whole shabang...we'll figure it out! I hope it's "Row-bot" because that would be hilarious!

HOW COOL.

.

Imagine being able to kayak with whales! That would be so cool. Imagine going to a spot right where the whales are and not having to worry about how to get there, or finding where it is. That would be even cooler.

I love whales, can you tell? They're so beautiful and majestic. But I love kayaks more. So much that I have two blogs about them.

An update, from your favourite robot-yak people.

When I refer to yak, I mean kayak not this animal.
I can understand why that could be misleading!

Have you ever felt lost, say, while you were kayaking? Well have we got the thing for you! You will just have to wait and see what we have in store for you guys.

But anyways, we're planning our video shoot to show you guys our new project.

 All this techy, nerdy stuff is pretty exhilarating...maybe not exhilarating, but  BE EXCITED, cause this is pretty exciting stuff.




The coolest robot-yak team you know, out.

Things are happenin' up in here in kayaking land.







We're putting together our project and we are scheduled to test on August 6th. It's coming together nicely.We are currently building a system where physical rudder control is not needed and the hand controller mechanism  is steered by an App on your smart phone controls the whole shabang(how rad)! So all you have to do is sit back, chill and enjoy your day on the water.



When Robots and Kayaks Collide. BOOM.

 Hey, cool stuff coming at you from the people that brought you dataczar(We're back)!
Introducing a new way to kayak with GPS technology

Stay tuned for more info about this super cool, super rad, new thing!
