Since I have no prior Grasshopper experience (except for what we did in this class) and am pretty new to Rhino, I had to follow Luis's video very carefully, step by step. I was amazed at first that everything seemed to be working, something that is rare for the digital technology in my life. Everything worked up until the last step when I tried to display the robot and I realized that the toolpath and guide plugs weren't happy and I didn't know what to do to fix them at the moment.
I then tried to use 123D Catch on my android tablet and it was extremely hard getting the little spinning circle indicator to correspond with the photo angle. I tried everything, including cheating by first lining up the indicator and then turning my car to face the correct way. It seems like my accelerometers are out of whack and I have no idea of what to do about it. Below is my model, a 1:36 scale '65 Ford Mustang with a door open. What you see here is the best take out of at least four tries, done on my friend's somewhat-more-keen android device.
