Tasks Completed:
- We worked together to come up with a mechanism design.
- We jointly worked with drivetrain to review constraints and other important details
- We started working with a "golf club shooter" by manipulating designs on Auto Desk
- We did not finish working on a final design and but did calculate the force needed to hit the ball effectivly 30 feet at 10 ft/second... It was calculated that this would required approximately 32 lbs of force applied to the ball for 6 inches of the contact with the ball.
- Tomorrow we should continue working with designs and with cad to refine a possible mechanism design.
- Brief experiment was performed to understand force capability of the surgical tubing supplied in the KOP. 8 strains approximately 12" long exert a force of approximately 43 ponds when streched to approximately 19".
