Start time: 7
End time: 9
Members present: Rika, Crystal, Sean, Michael, Josh, Oranges, Apples
Tasks Completed:
- Tested bright light interferance with Omron Sensors.
- Determined that hopefully two omrons will go on both ends of the converyors
Oranges Dave Omron Sensor Data
- No extra shroud around detector during test
- White object detects to 2" (Omron data sheet predicts 1.77", so pretty close)
- Silver Object detects to 2.5"
- Black electrical tape detects to 1"
- Black marker detects to 1" (Omron data sheet predicts 0.78", so pretty close)
- Black paint detects to 1"
- The best distance to tell the difference between white and black is about 1.5" (Omron data sheet would predict about 1.25"). On/off not messed up by green laser pointers. Not messed up by 100watt incandescent light.
Tasks In Progress:

Tasks to Complete/Things we want to know:
- Do we want six photoelectric sensors (and if so, consider less expensive ones?)
- Want sensors from here?
- What sensor to use for shaft encoder on top spinner.
Images & Additional Updates:
(Use the upload file button on the toolbox to the left to upload the file, then insert an image using the button above. Sizing can be done using the length/width pixel size)
