Baxter Task Complete

Yesterday, I completed Baxter's first pick and place task using the external sensor! In order to understand how to do this, I spent hours reading over Baxter's user guide (focusing on sections regarding signals and pathways). By using the guide, I learned how to use the signal emitted by the sensor to initiate a chain of actions which would pickup the object on the sensor and then place it elsewhere. The procedure was surprisingly simple, and it could be easily replicated. I can't wait for it to be presented to Burlington's elementary schools!
