I believe that the car should be programmed to hit the SUV over the Mini Cooper. This is because the people in the SUV will have a better chance for survival, than the people in the Mini Cooper, being that it is a lot smaller and can not take as much of an impact, compared to the SUV.

I believe that the car should be programmed to hit the guy with no helmet on the motorcycle. This is because in some states it is illegal so definitely if it was in a state like NJ. Regardless of it being legal or not, he is not being safe at all, and the guy with the helmet is being as safe as possible. Plus, I do not believe that the helmet would save the other guy so my decision is solely based off of the guy with the helmet is smarter than the guy without one, according to safety.

I believe that the car should make decisions based on a random number generator. This is good, because it simulates the everyday decisions that people make. Plus, it would not be fair for a car to automatically be programmed to hit you. I know I would sue someone if they were targeting my car over someone else's. 

I do believe that the driver should be responsible if the car is making the decision. This is because it was the driver's choice to use the automated option. Plus, they could have maybe even been aware and grabbed the steering wheel before the accident.

Passion Project progress/update #3

I am definitely going to get everything done by the time we will be presenting. I feel that my information will be done by next Friday, and my video will be done by next Friday as well. I may finish all of my work early, which would give me extra time to edit my sides and make them awesome. I really like working on this project, however, I am worried about people getting bored while I am presenting, so that is why I want to make a video of me shooting with different hockey sticks. So far, my project is really coming along and I am very happy with my progress, to date.

Passion Project #2 Update...

Honestly, I had not got as much done on the last two Passion Project days. I have been so caught up in all of the tests that we are having, that working on the Passion Project slipped my mind. I will definitely get a lot done this Friday to make up for the two days that I had failed in getting information. I am thinking of an obstacle that may occur that could really make me struggle with this project. I feel that I may want to do too much with it. For example, I feel that I need to do every single hockey stick in the market. I am thinking of limiting it to just the top of the line sticks (best ones). However, I feel that this project is still going to be a lot of fun while completing. I have to still look up info. on the various sticks for this project.

Passion Project Self-Evaluation

So far, my Passion Project has been going so well! I love my idea this time and really feel like I am going to learn so much about what I am passionate about. I have already outlined my project, like where I will write a certain amount of information. I can not wait to finish this project and present what I have learned to the class at the end of the semester. So far, I have found pictures of the different brands of hockey sticks, that I will soon give summaries about. For the next two or three Fridays, I will most likely be researching the different types of hockey stick. If I finish hockey early, then I will move on to lacrosse sticks, and then the history of how the hockey/lacrosse sticks came to be today.

Hi,
For Chris and I's Passion Project, we had decided to continue to create games. However, this one would be more complex, and look more like a game that could potentially get published into the App Store/Google Play Store. With Stencyl, it had just finished downloading about a week ago, so we have a lot of work to do to catch up on our assignments for the project. We will also most likely be creating a Power Point demonstrating our journey throughout our second passion project of the year. I can not wait until our game is complete! We have started to put levels on the game, and it is way harder than it sounds. With hard work and perseverance, our ROGATE 8 Passion Project hopefully will be a success!
