Week Ten - Friday: Racquetball challenge Pt. 4

We basically are done coding the controller all we are missing is the turning mechanism. But we have started the challenge and plan to finish it hopefully by Monday. This has really set us back greatly.

 

Week Ten - Monday: Racquetball challenge Pt. 3

This week we plan onto starting the racquetball challenge. All we need to do is just to code the robot to the controller. Once we have done that we can finally start the challenge.

Week Nine - Friday: Racquetball Challenge Pt. 2

We have the main design in thought and almost finished. Now we are making the needed measurements to ideally build our robot for the challenge. We are still tweaking our gears and arm to work properly and reliably.

Week Nine - Monday: Racquetball Challenge Pt. 1

We've come up with a design for the end effector and are currently in the process of making it. We were having a small problem the motors and gears. After asking fellow classmates we have fixed the problem and continuing to build the robot.

Week Eight - Friday: Racquetball Progress

To finish off the week, our construction of the modifications to our robot for the racquetball challenge have made some advancements. We began to add an end effector capable of lifting the racquetball. We also added the motor we're going to be using for the end effector.

Week Eight - Monday: Beginning the Racquetball Challenge

This week we began deconstructing the parts used for the autonomous tetrahedron challenge and began modifying our robot for the racquetball challenge. The goal of the racquetball challenge is to have our robot lift the racquetball and place it in a cylindrical post.
