This week was heavily focused on improving our shooter, specifically tuning it to make it more reliable and consistent. Additionally, we made progress on our expandable hopper, wiring, and autonomous, with some vision and pose tracking struggles.
We spent a large portion of the week tuning the shooter and testing the entire scoring system in a realistic setting.
This week, we continued programming and testing. We completely overhauled the wiring of our robot to make it neater and more organized. In addition, we significantly changed the design of several subsystems.
We added new rollers to the shooters and added an expandable “hopper” to the collector. We continued tuning the shooter and other subsystems.
We tested the whole fuel path (collector –> conveyor belt (transfer) –> indexer –> shooter) at 1500, 3000, and then 6000 RPM.
Also, we are currently in the process of designing our team T-Shirt. We currently have four preliminary designs.
We are still busy designing, building, thinking, trying, programming.
How are we going to drive, collect, shoot, climb! FUN!!
We re-built, again, the mechanism for moving the balls from the box to the shooter.
The chassis is done, collector installed, shooter in the works, and we are trying to figure out the climb.
