1/14/2024 - Prototyping Starts!
- 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 of the prototype is mainly completed with the exception of belts and chains.
1/16/2024 - CAD and Prototyping is now in full swing!
- 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).
1/17/2024 - Revision of Prototype design
- Replaced all red compliance wheel axles on prototype with both red and green compliance wheels to make them grippier.
- Did CAD design for a new mechanism attachment intended to score notes into the trap.
1/18/2024 - CAD Design continues for our arm
- 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, we currently have created the superstructure for this assembly in CAD.
1/20/2024 - Testing the Prototype!
- We tested our prototype intake/shooter mechanism by intaking a note, outtaking it, and shooting it. It was successful! We are considering changing the gearbox on the transmission for the motor that drives our intake and outtake to get more power for intaking and outtaking notes.
