Notes
Wiring (Mr. Roche, Ryan A, David Beak, Mr Battis)
- All motors on Drive Train and El Toro Systems are wired!
- Software should do a motor test
- Working on Sensors (encoders and limit switches)
- Need to work with Software to get second limit switch on El Toro
- Donald worked on wiring
- Mr. Battis has diagram of wiring board to try a laser cut for 2nd board.
Catapult (David Eacho)
- finished first bended shooter, properly bent
- Working on catapult sub frame
- Need to make some parts
- Would it be possible to make uBolt holders out of poly carb ?
- Yes, and lazer cut…
- 3D print the beds?
- Donald worked on mounts for catapult sub frame
Catapult (Mr. Wells)
- Working on gearbox
- have to rework shaft
- started building engagement mechanism
2nd Robot Team (Will Baum, Donald, Jane all worked today, David Beak)
- worked on brackets for El Toro
- Worked on other aluminum bounts
- worked on 2nd robot catapult sub frame
Niles did general all around work
worked on wiring
worked on 2nd Robots
Software (Kevin)
- Worked on software, basic routines are made
- should be run and tested
- also worked on wiring.
Priorities
- Working Gear Box
- Keep working on sensor wiring.
- Springs for El Toro
Supplies Needed
- Need 3″ 1/4 20 round head
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
