Revision as of 07:42, 20 January 2024


  • Continued to CAD the shooter/intake mechanism and figured out some 2D geometries/measurements relating to robot interaction with source and trap.
  • Worked on assembling prototype of mechanism (base assembly is mainly completed with the exception of belts and chains.


  • Tested out a diffuse reflection sensor for sensing game pieces.
  • Continued evaluation geometries for scoring positions in CAD (Specifically those relating to placement of game pieces in the amp and trap and acquisition from source) and analyzed potential scoring angles.
  • Started CAD design for worm drive brake actuation.
  • Continued assembly of our prototype mechanism (added belts and motors to prototype)


  • Replaced all red-wheel axles with both red and green wheels to make them grippier.
  • Did CAD design for a new mechanism attachment that puts notes in the trap (pictured right)
    One of our ideas for a mechanism to score a note in the trap




  • We continued work on our physical prototype of our intake/shooter mechanism (mechanical assembly is mainly complete, we are adding belts, motors, and wiring).
  • Also, we did more work in CAD on ideas to attach our intake/shooter assembly to our drivebase, our current idea is an arm (pictured below).
