Fremdrift Denne uken fikk vi printet ut platene til roboten vår, så vi kunne starte sammensetningen av roboten. Platene ble tegnet i Solidworks og så laserkuttet i trefinér. Ut ifra fysikken involvert, så ønsker vi mest tyngde i toppen av roboten. Dette skaper et større treghetsmoment, som minsker oscilleringene ved overshoot fra motorene. Tenk deg […]

Hello world! its been a long time since last post. and lots have happened. We can start with mechanical. we have bought an rc car to use as a startingpoint. We’re not going to use the parts from the rc-car but we are planning to model parts off the car and create the parts ourselves. […]

first full drawing of the box including the required movements. Besides this small update there is not so much to talk about. Everybody is working on his current tasks.

Progress: Design:  Changes: The mirror will no longer be usable by touch. The touch overlays are just too expensive. We are currently considering which alternative is the best, if its buttons ore some kind of a mouse interface or something completely different. Mechanical: The first parts are finished. After 3D printing them they needed a […]

Today Alvin and arman continued doing some lasercutting. Here is the process of using the lasercutter. The machine we used is an Epilog Laser Fusion M2, with FlexiDESIGNER Software. Before doing any cutting, we start off in a CAD model, in this case Solidworks. Then we saved the file as an .dxf file and exported […]

Toothpaste dispenser The blog will be divided in 3 parts: Movement Parts Materials Movement The tooth paste dispenser is based on a crankshaft movement. The crankshaft movement is an easy, cheap and reliable movement and therefore a suitable solution.  There is chosen to make the movement with bushes and not with bearings. The movement to […]

Progress:  Mechanical / Arduino:  We got the servomotor to move as we want it. As soon as button is pushed, the motor starts moving in steps of on degree, after every degree it will check the connected load cell if a certain weight is reached. If so the motor sets back to zero. This mechanism […]

Vi er en gruppe bestående av fem ingeniør studenter, med tre fra elektro og to fra data. Elektro: Tore André Einan Jan Christian Fossen Sharif Yusefi Data: Kim André Myre Bente H. Hestnes Idémyldring Vi startet med litt idémyldring i forhold til hva vi ville prøve å utvikle. Vi bestemte oss for å lage en […]

We have experimented with the image processing features in MATLAB for the purpose of isolating the information we need from the images we receive from the camera. Currently we have decided to use color thresholder and hughes transform to find lines in the pictures. Research of different programs, methods that can be used to use […]
