Members Attending Next Meeting:

hooked back up the line sensors on robot (didn't trim wires yet since still a question whether the sensors will be in front or in back)
made a new power cable to the analog bumper since somehow the previous one got lost ???!!
Dave S measured motor terminals and will look for mating faston connectors so we don't have to solder wires on.
- There are 3 different sizes for motors, 0.187W, 0.150W, 0.110W
- M7-RS775-18 motor has 0.187"W x 0.025"THK
- M5-RS540-12 and M5-RS550-12 motors have 0.150"W x 0.020"THK
- M3-RS395-12 motor has 0.110"W x 0.017"THK

thinking about wire feed to arm
- discussed with Larry pro's and con's of top feed versus bottom feed - we are leaning toward bottom feed to a point near the axle away from the gripper end
- Larry recommended that we research more flexible high-strand count wire for this application
