week 13 end

Week 13


11/15-  Goals: We didn't finish the whole programming because we have yet to complete the servo on the side thats gonna hold the cube and drop it off for the autonomous. The autonomous is pretty much finished, we just have to add a command for the servo dropping the cube off.

Week 13 11/12 start

Week 13


11/12- Goals: (Tuesday Post) We are finishing autonomous in order to compete for a grade this week, unfortunately it is a short week because we did not have school Monday...the Robot is complete and awaiting programming although we are still adding a few modifications and tweaks to improve the robot. WE also have to add another arm that will drop off a cube during the autonomous.

Robotic Building and Programming has been suspended until further notice!!!

What we're using as an example to decide how to make our cube end effector

Week 11 11/1 end

Week 11

 Goals:  We came up with the design for the swingy part to hit the cubes

11/1- We attached the second arm and there was some time left, so we started attaching the claw for picking up cubes. However we didn't start programming. 


What we managed to attatch for second arm

Week 11--10/28 start

Week 11

10/28 - Goals: Come up with a design and a way to pick up the cubes. We decided that we will add a                     second arm, and make the end pick up cubes. Next, we want to start programming the                                 autonomous in Robot C. 


Putting on more gears for the robot to hang

Finished putting on the more gears for the arm to work
