Sondre: This week, I focused on improving the reliability of the sensors on the robot and integrating the IMU to achieve accurate direction tracking. To make this work, I had to modify how the robot handles turning, including adding calibration routines and smoothing of sensor readings. These changes made the robot’s movement more stable and…

Theo: This week, I managed to get the servo working. I did some troubleshooting with a multimeter and found that the issue was insufficient power to the servo. After connecting the servo to the driver board and powering it with a power bank, it started working. Once the arm is ready, I’ll calibrate the servo…

Sondre: This week I have not done anything huge but rather a couple smaller things that needed to be done. I have focused on testing smaller bits and pieces and getting them to work, since I am waiting on some parts I have ordered for the project. I started by testing the cars movement and…

This week our group was a bit smaller than usual, since not everyone could be there. On Monday, those of us who were present focused on finishing up the presentation for next week. We went through the slides together, divided the speaking parts, and made sure the overall structure was okay. After that, we discussed…

Théo: This week I succeeded in having good feedback from the sensor with this and this basic assembly. Next step will be to implement all four sensors around the car and instead of changing the smiley face, change the direction of the car. Sondre: This week I focused on building a library for box detection using…

This week, our group has started preparing the presentation for the project. We discussed the key points we want to include, such as the problem domain, our project structure, and the technical solutions we have developed. Each member has taken responsibility for different sections, and we have begun drafting slides and organizing the flow so…

This week we have concentrated on the group. With that we have divided roles, found a group name, and started mocking up the design of the car. Group roles: Robin This week, my time was dedicated to creating a library for the electrical CAD software and developing the first version of the robot’s electrical schematic.…

Blog post 2: Robin: This week, I began working on the robot’s electrical design. To organize the schematic, I plan to start building a component library for the micro:bit driver expansion board, ensuring all the essential elements are included. At this stage, our setup consists of four ultrasonic sensors, a micro:bit driver expansion board, a…

Presentation of the GroupGroup members: Our group consists of three electronics engineers and two data engineers. We have decided to develop a delivery robot, which we have not named yet. Since we do not have any mechanical engineers on our team, we chose to build upon an existing car platform and expand its functionality. The…
