Start time: 6:40 pm

End time: 9pm

Members present: Michael H, Sean K, Rika L, Collin S, Crystal V, Oranges, Apples


Updates:

-Jeff says we will only need one Digital Side car!! So we'll be sacrificing one conveyor belt sensor.


Burlone's Marching Orders:

-Interface with Mechanical for Sensor mounts

   -->Limit Switches ---> Done-ish

   -->Banner Sensor ---> Need adjustablility (for the time being until we finalize)

   -->Encoder for top spinner (Shooter) --> Precise mounting

   -->Mouse ---> Talk to Josh Gannon

   -->Omron ---> Need Adjustment for the time being until we finalize (again)

-Interface with mechanical about where the board gets mounted on the hopper (again) --the lower, the better

-Talk to programming tonight (Off time to cut up wires / transfer components)

-Measure wire lengths in inventor / route in inventor

-Make protective cover for electrical board-- make sure it fits in inventor!

    --How do we want to mount this?

    --Should we velcro it? Bolt? Think about it; if you're in pitcrew, and you have velcro, you have to fight a little to tear it off because accessing. If you bolt it-- you have to unbolt it one by one, which will take longer. Crystal suggested hinging it maybe, that wouldn't be a bad idea, so it's a flipping access that's easy. Oranges thinks we should velcro and screw a few just for field safety.

-Work on Mice

-Weight (again) and give to Mr. Kanzler


Ideas for making the board pretty:

-Drill holes in the lexan and wire below
