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…

Week 45 Group 6
Computer/electro: This week we have completed the controller for driving the tanks, and now it controls as we want. Video to the driving and controlling It controls with the left joystick, moving it forward will have both motors engaging forward, if you pull it to the left, the left track will move forward while the…

Group 7 – Week 11
Week 11 Mechanical: Adithya: This week we finished the main body and attached the sub systems to it. The final design is looking more or less finished. This week I will be working on adding holes for screws, sensors and wheels so that we can begin laser cutting some final parts for the tank. The…

Haptix Week 45
Petter: I’ve been working on the input system of the cube, first debating it’s simplicity, intuitivity and scale, and from then I’ve chosen to make the input based on a single press and it’s angle compared to the side and block it touches, it will from then send the relevant data which will decide which way to make the…

AutoDrink, week 44
We are in need of more sensores, both lidar and ultrasonic sensors. Two of the ultrasonic sensors we had were broken, and then we had to reorder our resources. Hopefully we will get some new ones next week. But for now the 3D scanning of volume and the positioning system of the trolley is on…

Group 7 – Week 10
Week 10 Mechanical: Jonas Decided against using cog-wheels for the upwards and downwards movement of the cannon. There’s no reason to over complicate it when i could just attach the stepper motor itself to the cannon by mounting it sideways. Acquired a basic laser pointer which will act as the indicator for where the “shots”…
