Notes
- CAD (Joe, Niles)
- Drivetrain, wheels, gearboxes
- Working on bumper (height requirement)
- Next: catapult, battery, el toro
- Practice Arena (Donald)
- Working on brackets
- Mr. Wells on the lumber
- T-Shirt (Sarah, David, Cynthia)
- Making good progress… need to figure out color
- El Toro(David E., Roche)
- Major supports constructed for for arms, waiting on for brackets
- Redesigned motor mounts, trying to install as fast as possible
- Won’t have pitman arm, but will be able to twiddle
- Battis is trying to sneak in some encoders on the gearboxes
- Catapult (David B.)
- Working on the rollbar support (holes for pivot)
- Bumpers (Katrina)
- Blue will be ready first (and soon)
- Stenciling looks cool
- Shopping List
- Current awaiting the arrival of…
- Hubs, window motor mounts and hex shafts
Priorities
Must
These will happen no matter what
- Drive
- Herd
- Score >= 6 pts
- Bumpers
- Do this first week, while prototypers prototype
- Documentation
|
Should
Prioritize, try to get to as many as possible
- Maneuverable (drive train and practice)
- Mecanum wheels
- Hold (hardware) a. with potential to shoot if that system comes online b. Loading (hardware) — might not even need this
- Shoot 8’ (hardware)
- Some aiming (software)
- Second robot for driving practice/thinkin’
|
If Time Permits
Reach goals
- Catch
- Differential power settings
- Vision system
- Modular goalie arm (sub 30 lb, replace shooter at competition)
|
Housekeeping
- Clean up after yourself
- Help teammates clean up after themselves
- We don’t leave until we scrum… we don’t scrum until the shop is clear
- Half-finished projects go on shelves, not the floor
- Scrap is only useful if it’s stock, stock is only useful if it’s organized
