week 12 4/30

Image
Today we finally completed the tetrahedron challenge with an 125 percent. We also discovered our robot is too tall so we moved the claw lower on the base. We are going to begin working on autonomous and get that done as soon as possible.

week 10 4/17

At the end of week 10 we finished the claw and began doing tetrahedron test runs. the robot is hard to control but ultimately it gets the job done. Angel has been working on solid works but is easily distracted by his phone. he will try to finish solid works here or at home sometime this week. I have kept up with the blogs and have them all up to date.

Today we finished the claw but we still have to build the tetrahedron. the claw is working better than ever and is tall enough. We have to get the solid works done and start running and improving our bots flaws.

week 9 4/12

Image
Today we rebuilt our claw. the original claws height was not tall enough to get the tetrahedron on top of the pipe. Now the bot is tall enough and we should be ready for the challenge. The only thing left is to build the tetrahedron and begin our challenge.

week 9 4/8

Image
Today we added a small piece to the axles of the base we also revised our claw and are gonna restart it. we finished the figure eight and are gonna get ready for the tetrahedral challenge. We still need to make our own tetrahedron.

week 8 4/5

Image
Today was some what a fold. one of our motors stopped running unexpectedly. We researched it and got it to run again sort of. the claw modifications were done and it was mad longer but it is also harder to control. We are considering changing the base of the claw which means starting all over.

week 8 4/1

Today Monday April 1 we finished the mechanical part of the bot but we still need to do more modifications to it. The bot is running fine but it is hard to control and is to fats sometimes. we need to do the tetrahedron challenge as well as build our own tetrahedron. Angel works at burger king so he will steal the straws we need from there.
