Group 6 Week 40 (Høstferie)
This week we’ve been working on a function to tilt the gun. Our primary focus was elevating the barrel but we also tried to keep in mind how to easily expand on our design in order to allow the gun to rotate horizontally. After a session of brainstorming we concluded that a motor with a […]

Week 39
Mechanical: Several of the parts in our design are based on cutting, bending and drilling sheets of metal. This post will focus on bending. When something is bent the inner side is compressed while the outer side undergoes tension. This changes the dimensions of the part and we have to account for this when planning […]

Group 7 – Week 5
Week 5 Mechanical We started off this week by dividing the workload into two. One worked on remodelling the tank in a way which can be laser cut as we were not satisfied with our initial design. This model will be used as a base for making the composite version.The other worked with altering and […]

We didn’t have the right URL, to get into dronesonenens website, so this post is a bit late. The parts we ordered have been delayed, therefore we spent this week testing different arduino objects that we might need. Servo We tested a servo engine connected to arduino to use for our trigger system. Figure 1: […]

Project Fetch (12.09-19.09) Week 4
Hardware This week was mostly spent waiting for the raspberry pi to finish various tasks such as installing dependencies and building software. We were not able to do much progress on the programming because when the pi is working we cannot do anything else on it. And the building process usually takes hours. The long […]
