Overall Concept

Ideas

-9V Battery shape (1511 V)

-5 presets: (ground, 1st cube, 1st cone, 2nd cube, 2nd cone)

-Keep it short (because the scoring is in front of the table)

-Has a place to store the controllers

-All PlayStation controller

-Have wheels like last year?

-NO ZIPPERS

-No funny angles (unlike 2020)

-Cabinet like 2020

-Shapes on the sides that look like renewable energy sources (windmill, solar panel, etc.)

-Lightbulb/fan?

-"Radiation"

Design Info

41.25 inches tall maximum (Try to keep it shorter)

Approx. 4.25 5 inches tall (without laptop) (5 inches is way too tall (this is a problem))

Keep it simple

Last year's laptop dimensions: 16.75 x 11.875

Buttons it needs to have:

  • Broken switches (multiple of 5)
  • LED controls

Mini solar panels (bing or maybe attach to top of buttons for broken switches):

To Do

Not Started

In Process

  1. determine height of pull out draw for broken switches/buttons

Meeting Minutes

1/14

Attendees: Byers, Eric, Sam, Gabby, Sami, Hailey, Tyler

Work Completed:

  • primed this Wiki page
  • Reviewed previous controllers for reference
  • Made some ideas for the 2023 controller
  • Voted on controller drawings
  • Made some measurements for controller dimensions

1/15

Attendees: Byers, Sami, Sam

Work Completed:

  • Made some CAD ideas for the controls
  • Measured some controls dimensions
  • Looked at how many buttons/switches we have (we have 6 LED rectangle buttons (4 are green) and at least 10 switches)
  • We should use switches instead of buttons because we have more of them
  • PS5 controllers were picked (talked with Calla & Peter); they are on the shopping list
  • Found 2 orange 6' USB C cables

Controls Rules 2023

9.9 OPERATOR CONSOLE

R901 *Use the specified Driver Station Software. The Driver Station Software provided by National Instruments (install instructions found here) is the only application permitted to specify and 9 ROBOT Construction Rules V2 109 of 141 communicate the operating mode (i.e. AUTO/TELEOP) and operating state (Enable/Disable) to the ROBOT. The Driver Station Software must be version 22.0 or newer.


R902 *The OPERATOR CONSOLE must have a visible display. The OPERATOR CONSOLE, the set of COMPONENTS and MECHANISMS used by the DRIVERS and/or HUMAN PLAYERS to relay commands to the ROBOT, must include a graphic display to present the Driver Station Software diagnostic information. It must be positioned within the OPERATOR CONSOLE so that the screen display can be clearly seen during inspection and in a MATCH.


R903 *Connect FMS Ethernet directly to the OPERATOR CONSOLE. Devices hosting the Driver Station Software must only interface with the FMS via the Ethernet cable provided at the DRIVER STATION (e.g. not through a switch). Teams may connect the FMS Ethernet cable to the device running the Driver Station Software directly via an Ethernet pigtail, or with a single-port Ethernet converter (e.g. docking station, USB-Ethernet converter, Thunderbolt-Ethernet converter, etc.). The Ethernet port on the OPERATOR CONSOLE must be easily and quickly accessible.

[Teams are strongly encouraged to use pigtails on the Ethernet port used to connect to the FMS. Such pigtails will reduce wear and tear on the device’s port and, with proper strain relief employed, will protect the port from accidental damage.]


R904 *OPERATOR CONSOLE physical requirements. The OPERATOR CONSOLE must not

A. be longer than 5 ft. (~152 cm)

B. be deeper than 1 ft. 2 in. (~35 cm) (excluding any items that are held or worn by the DRIVERS during the MATCH),

C. extend more than 6 ft. 6 in. (~198 cm) above the floor, or

D. attach to the FIELD (except as permitted by G301).


R905 *FIELD wireless only. Other than the system provided by the FIELD, no other form of wireless communications shall be used to communicate to, from, or within the OPERATOR CONSOLE.

[Examples of prohibited wireless systems include, but are not limited to, active wireless network cards and Bluetooth devices. For the case of the FIRST Robotics Competition, a motion sensing input device (e.g. Microsoft Kinect) is not considered wireless communication and is allowed.]


R906 *No unsafe OPERATOR CONSOLES. OPERATOR CONSOLES shall not be made using hazardous materials, be unsafe, cause an unsafe condition, or interfere with other DRIVE TEAMS or the operation of other ROBOTS.
