Shooter Design

  • Turret-mounted
    • Approx. 280 degrees of rotation minimum need final range
    • 1-degree precision
    • Mechanical hardstops
    • Absolute angular position sensor
      • Combination sensors - one on motor output shaft, one on turrent drive sprocket
    • Kit Window motor
    • Geared down 48:188
    • Controlled by speed controller (needed for fine adjustment)
  • 2-Wheel shooter
    • Must be able to impart backspin
    • Fixed angle of shot -- approximately 70 degrees above floor
    • Each wheel independently controlled (to control backspin)
    • Powered by Fisher-Price (968-9013) motor on speed controllers
    • Transmission -- AM-0002
    • Sensor for RPM on each
      • Provide sufficient resolution for rapid speed control update
      • Identify sensor characteristics
      • If max ball velocity is 12m/s and if shooter wheel diameter is 6", then approx max rpm is 1500.
  • Camera mounted on turret
    • Must have direct light source inline with lens
    • Must be able to tilt; does not need to be able to pan
    • Higher is better to see over robots in front of us

Beater Bar Design

  • Fixed position within frame, as close to perimeter as possible
  • 1 speed forward, 1 speed reverse
  • Driven from a relay
  • Pushes balls in and on to first conveyor section
  • Banebots RS-775 motor
  • Banebots P60 4-to-1 transmission, geared down 2-to-1 for total of 8-to-1


Wings/V-collector Design

  • V-shaped collector outside of robot
  • Articulated up/in and down/out -- 2-position motion
  • Just a plain bars, no actual motion on the bars themselves
  • Motion must be able to pull unloaded bridge down from horizontal
  • Must extert 10lbs force at the tip to pull the unloaded bridge
  • AM-0914 motor and associated gearbox
    • Geared down 2-to-1 for additional torque (2-to-1 gives stall torque of 6200 oz-lbs = 380 inch-lbs)
    • 2-to-1 gearing gives unloaded single-actuation of about 0.433 sec unloaded
    • Loaded (bridge) actuation is about 0.525 seconds
  • Mechanical hard-stops
  • Absolute positional sensor
  • Limit switches on both ends


Ball Movement/Storage System Design

  • 3-stage conveyor system
  • First 2 stages straight at approx. 45 degree rise
  • Intake end begins behind front wheel, about 1" from floor
  • Each stage uses....
    • 1 Banebots RS-775 motors [1]
    • Coupled to Banebots P60 16-to-1 transmissions [2]
    • Controlled by Speed Controllers (could have been SPIKEs, but would be nice to be able to slow them for diagnostics)
    • Banner-style sensor at the very inside-edge to indicate that "this ball has advanced fully in this stage"
  • Additional banner-style very close to intake end (just past beater bar contact point) to count balls and know when we can stop intake on beater bar
