Wiring
The base design subgroup fully assembled motors and the swerve drive. The updated Alpha bot wiring went well and without problems for the most part. We used the rectangular tubing on the base, along with a wire rack to route the main wires for a cleaner look. Everything that reasonably needs a label has one, and everything else is clear enough that everyone on the team can understand where things are going. after having some problems with ethernet switches, we decided on one with padded ethernet ports that stopped the robot from losing connection while driving, the firmware on the motors, and tested them for faults. Our team continued to work on CAD and designing potential base solutions.
