Week 5: Sort.it – Delegating tasks
Group 1 We started delegating tasks as computer engineers. Each member started working on their own part of the system. Creating code for grabber After our mechanical engineers had made their beta claw grabber it was time to create the code for servo motor. To make life easy and check that everything was working I […]

Auto21 – Post 3
This week we started to make a list for all the required parts and components for our project, as well as working on a technical drawing. We figured this was crucial to do early, making sure we get the parts that needs to be ordered in time. We also started to look for motors and […]

Connect 4 – Week 4 (12.09 – 18.09)
In week 4 we wired electrical connections for the prototype with the photoresistors and blue LEDs for the detection of the coins.We tested which values we have with and without the LED and came to the decision that we will create the gameboard with LEDs to detect the coins.The prototype worked well and we can […]

TCD – Unmanned ground vehicle Week 4 (12.09 – 18.09)
Hei bloggen! In this weeks group work we continued developing the robot arm and working more with the computer and electrical aspects. We splitted us into smaller groups and work on some different things. Kristoffer and Adrian worked on getting two bluetooth modules be able to communicate to each other so that we possibly could […]

Group 2 – Week 4
Computer Science This week we found a chess algorithm we could use which fitted our purpose since it already prints the coordinates for the moves that the machine will be executing. We are currently figuring out how to read and write out these coordinates to a file, which will be transferred to our Arduino board, […]

Auto21 – Post 4
This week we set up the raspberry pi, installed the needed software and got the camera working. We started using the OpenCV library to modify the pictures by changing hue, saturation and brightness isolating the playing card numbers which we want to recognize. With this we should be able to compare these pictures with sample […]

TCD – Unmanned ground vehicle Week 3 (05.09 – 11.09)
Hei bloggen! We started our day by going through the Arduino kit which we got from the university in the first semester of the first year, trying to look for parts which we could use. Sure enough we found servo motors and also a Bluetooth module. We figured this Bluetooth module could prove to be […]

Week 4: Sort.it – Product Development
This week we improved upon the code we already wrote, and finished some of the CNC designs so that they where ready to produce. Setting up the physical button We started working on a way to interact with our system, we where thinking that a button is the first logical interaction we should work on. […]

Connect 4 – Week 3 (05.09 – 11.09)
This week, Zoran showed us how we can lasercut things out. We than started to make a prototype of the gameboard, that means only two rows with all colums. And also cutting out 14 coins. Later, we have to paint or mark them in the player color and robot color. We glued the separator parts […]

Week 3: Sort.it – Connecting all 3 motors
This week we changed our name to Sort.It. Now that we had set up one of the motors correctly, we had to connect the wires on the two other motors and doubling up the code for the two other motors. Since we already done it once it was a piece of cake to do it […]
