week 6: Monday (10/3)

To start off the week, we learned that there was a hurricane and that we would miss 2 days of school. So today we are planning on trying to figure out a way to put on our end effector. Also, we changed the design of our end effector due to weight issues cause the motors cannot lift the arm without issues.

                                             

Week 5: Friday (9/30)

To finish the week, we pretty much finished all our goals for the week which was to have our robot up and running and to finish the solid works, only thing we need to do is figure out a way to attach our hook to our robot and that is what we are planning on doing today.

                                                
                                                

Week 5: Monday (9/26)

To start off the week we are starting really slow because we got pulled out of class for a magnet assembly. So on Tuesday we finally finished our coding of our robot, so know it is running pretty well. Also, we had a minor problem with the motor because when we tried to make the robot turn or reverse the front left wheel wouldn't move.

                                                

                                                

the picture above was the problem with the front left wheel so we changed the whole motor

Week 4: Friday (9/23)

To wrap up the week, We put the finishing on the motor positions and frame. Also we are beginning to start to code our robot so we can have it up and running. We had a short set back because we dont have enough motor controllers.

                                             

                                             

Week 4: Monday (9/19)

This week we are putting on the motors to actually make the robot run and fully functional. Our goals for this week are to have the robot up and running and to put our hook on the robot to practice on shooting the stars.
