Today, the programming team begins to debug their code, and find the problem.
While the programming team work on their parts, the hardware team is given the task to fix the robot, and any of the problems.
After Ahmed is done with his Floobits presentation, we decide to carefully look into our program and see how we can make the robot move.
We decide to fix any incorrect placements for the axles, and attach the mecanum wheels to the chassis.
Today we finish attaching the gears to the axles. We also have to fix one of the axles because it was placed incorrectly. The mecanum wheels are attached to the chassis. Some of the bearing are fixed.
Both Mecanum wheels fully attached onto one half of the design.
Today we run into quite a few problems that we make great progress on fixing.
These problems include, multiple unneeded parts accidentally attached to channels and incorrectly sized brackets.
We take the channel apart to fix the incorrectly screwed on brackets. We are still in the process of fixing the brackets as well as the gears on our axels since they are both intersecting through channels.
Next meeting, we plan on finishing the chassis design. We will make more improvements to our center channels, which have some complications.
Along with that we will also finish our axle assemblies for both sides. Some of the bearings still need to be fixed.
These are the gears that are currently incorrectly fastened to the axel. Next meeting we plan to fix this fastening but for now it is a temporary solution, simply to have the gear attached to the design.
This is a bearing that needs to be fixed.
We review Ahmed’s FTC Floobits presentation and give him feedback.
We also go over our new approach for the new FTC season
We want to discover what the problem in our code is and try to make a fully functioning code that makes the robot move forward to the rings and back to the original starting point using OpenCV.
We want to develop our own program to find the distance from the rings using the camera. At the moment, it only decides the amount of rings.
Here we see Ahmed’s drawing representing our approach to the match. (And the team on the side.)
