Primitive robot exercise
ORIGINAL.
MODIFIED.
I name my modified robot Booter, Booter has a shield that can protect himself from being hit or dents. Besides, Booter also has a gun which is his mean weapon to attack people when he is being attacked. It can be used in war as it can be operated easily and it can take commands easily.

From this lab, we started forming simple primitive shapes into a robot. The process of making this robot is quite tough and tedious as we need to make the shapes one by one and duplicating it to make similar shapes with the same measurements.
FOR EXAMPLE:
The legs of the robots
How can we duplicate the legs on the left to the right?
1) We need to create a cylinder and the spheres and have them joined together as shown above. We need to duplicate this 2 shapes in order to have the same shape and measurements of legs for the robot. Hence, select the shapes by clicking on left mouse button and drag over the shapes. The picture below shows that the shapes are selected together. Both of the shapes will move in the same way when you use the move tool to move it.
2) After selecting the 2 shapes, we can then press the button "CTRL + D" to duplicate. After pressing the button, the duplicated shapes are still in the same position, we then use the move tool to move the duplicated shapes out.
The after result of duplicated shapes. Thus, this concludes on what i've learnt from the lab session. Duplicating plays an important part in this session by reducing all those tedious work. Having to make the same shapes over and over again is really tiring, by duplicating it, makes the work easier.
