Integration Task List[1]

Preliminary Design

Preliminary design after January 8th Design Sessions


-Drivetrain - 4" Omni "Slide" AKA H-Drive

-Collectors to prototype

-Stationary Beater Bar
-Actuator Beater Bar and Wings
-Hungry Hungry Hippos
-U Shaped Brush

-Bridge Actuators to prototype

-Actuator also acts as collector
-actuator is seperate from collector

-Storage will be 3 stage

-Shooter will be a turret

-Spinning wheels to shoot
-Need backspin on ball
-Variable Speed
-Variable angle (could be speed)
-Need to shoot over 60ft.

Robot Specifications

Overall:

  • Time from collection to shooting should be less than 2 seconds.
  • The direction that the balls leave the robot must be opposite from the side of the robot that collects the balls.
  • All designs need to be robust so that time spent fixing the robot is to a minimum especially due to the fact that there will be no bumpers.
  • All parts should be easily serviced if needed.

Gripper:

  • Must be able to grab and secure totes and RCs in .5 sec
  • Must be able to grab totes and RCs in both orientations
  • Must be able to hold 5 totes with and RC
  • Must release game pieces at the end of the match.
  • Must be able to place on top of 4 totes
  • Cannot be dependent on the lips of the totes or containers
  • Should be able to help break apart the landfill

Lifter:

  • Must be able to Lift 6 totes high

Collector:

  • Must be able to be turned off and on quickly.
  • Must be able to pick up balls that are located on the wall of the court easily.
  • Must be able to pick up a ball when in contact with the collector and immediately (<0.2 seconds) pass it to the storage system.

RC Puller:

  • Must be able to pull RCs from the Step over the lanfill totes.
  • Must be retractable so that it can be retracted back into the robot after the RCs are pulled
  • Must be able to pull an RC completely to our side of the field in 7 seconds or less.
  • Should have an auto program that takes advantage of the RC puller.

Drivetrain:

  • Must be able to easily transverse the scoring platform and strafe sidewards and diagonally.
  • Max Drivetrain speed should be 12.04ft/s.
  • Drivetrain must have slow mode (shifters) for fine control on bridges and barriers.
  • Should weigh 38lbs or less
  • Picture of drive-train
