  • Group 7 Week 13-14

    Final 2 weeks Mechanical: Adithya:  The first week I printed out the necessary parts to assemble the body of the main body of the tank, including the side panels. This allowed to begin assembling the body of the final product as shown below. I am satisfied with how it looks as it resembles a tank […]

  • Week 49 Group 6

    Joel Soto Escoda (Electro) Marius Kul Balsvik (Machine)  Kristoffer Andersen (Machine) Steffen Barskrind (Computer)  Kristian Meinich Backer-Owe (Computer)  Nils Herman Lien Håre (Computer)  All of our code is on our Github page here https://github.com/steffenbk/Week-49-blog NB! we added the new code for the IR remote after the deadline because our main controller died and we had […]

  • Week 48 Group 6

    Machine: The last few posts have been scarce on updates from the machine students. We have however been making good progress on the tank. By simple laying the gun on a flat surface we could tell the gun was not level. This would affect the accuracy. It also had limited points to which it could […]

  • AutoDrink, week 46-48

    In theese two weeks we mounted the construction and the pumps. It is almost ready. To mount the pumps to the construction, we used velcrotape. We calibrated the pumps so we have exact time for each unit drink. All the powercables and singnalcables were installed and signalcables soldered to the motors. The rest of the […]

  • Week 47 Group 6

    Computer/Machine:  We are at a bit of a standstill, since we’re now waiting to get to test the code if it works on the tank itself, until machine and electro finishes the base of the tank. We had a couple of issues with aligning the wheels on the tank, so the machine guys had to […]

  • Week 46 Group 6

    Computer:This week we have finished up creating the automating driving of the tank, where it will follow a path that we set with tape, and it will drive along that path and adjust itself accordingly. video With our first intention was making it with raspberry pi and then having an app that is made and […]

  • Haptix week 47

    Petter: Because of my issues with the input system I went and talked to Steven about possible solutions, he ended up giving me new ideas and perspectives.  I ended up redoing the cube completely because of this and after 3 days compared to four weeks of work, I have a working prototype, which is frankly better in all ways compared to the old one. For a rough outline on how my thought process went:   First, Steven and I categorised the options:  […]

  • Group 7 – Week 12

    Mechanical  Adithya:  Until this week I have worked on the suspension assembly and the main body as two different entities. This week I began setting the sub-assemblies together to get a finished product. This involved adding holes for screws to attach the real-life product, checking clearances between the parts coming in contact, checking if there […]

  • Haptix week 46

    Petter: I’m continuing the work on the input system of the cube. It was more comprehensive than anticipated so I have spent my time, discussing and trying out different options as well as gathering info from more experienced users of unity.  William:  I have done research on how to implement a scoreboard from Unity to a database. Also been working on the scoreboard in Unity, I have an idea how I want it to be implementet and lookwise. We had a meeting on thursday where I had futher discussions with Even.  Herman & Tom Erik: We’ve been discussing the specifics of the physical design elements and obtain all necessary tools. Work is still being done on refining the sensory circuitry of the system.  This week […]

  • AutoDrink, week 45

    This week we finally got the lidar for the positioning of the trolley, but after some discussion with Steven, we ended up with the first idea we had, counting steps. The stepper motor is so accurate, and since the gear mounted on the motor fits perfectly with the power delivery belt, the easiest solution is […]
