what to finish in the next 5 days
 

I was just wandering what all your teams need to compleat in the next 5 days?

Team 476:
camera tracking
friction testing on treds
4 motor on 3 speed trannys (calculated at 30 ft/sec) HAHAHA
PRACTICE.....

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

Team 637
Packaging
Autonomous
Testing

oh yeah build robot....

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

Assembly
Code refinement
Practice
Ship

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

Mouting turret on Frame
Turret angle adjustment (incl camera, though we got it working on a Dev Board)
Turret Cover (to protect the shooter)
Wrapping up our rear conveyor
Mounting various other components on the frame...

We've got a long road ahead. Stop by our "pit" during the afternoon shift at DC!

30 fps is not smart. Your torque will be quite limited. Why build a 3 speed if you cannot use high gear?

Anyway, we are still machining and press fitting and broaching tonight. Then hopefully assemble tomorrow night and Sat day, and wire Sat night.

1188 still needs to

Finish Robot
Let programmers have at it
Practice
Ship

(Scout teams at UTC mini-scrimmage - that's my Job Saturday)
Team Jobs:

• Build - robot and bumpers now apparently.
• Rebuild
• Disassemble
• Make weight
• Compose BOM - and/or take lots of pics of the bot's pieces so we can write it after we ship in time for our first competition.
• Assemble
• Program (usually we let the programming team have the bot in week 6 sometime - maybe the last day even. That's good enough. :yikes: )
• Take photo of complete robot as of ship time with full team for brochures and what not.
• Pack robot
• Inventory tools for packing
• Pack tools
• Ship robot
• Breathe

Oh, and if we can do all that on time, and without killing each other, we are better than most years.

Good luck everyone! I know we will need some. :ahh:

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

1. Integration of our camera code/tracking with our shooting system.
2. Write some more Auto Code
3. Practice
4. Fix what breaks during practice
5. Practice some more
6. Fix what breaks
7. Pack and SHIP
8. Sleep

for our robot we had so many set backs throughout the build season that we are a little behind but for a rookie team our crew is doing great. i think we will be working on:

building robot
practice
tweek programming
and be lucky to have a working robot to show.

We are planning a few sleep overs to get the job done so we should be mostly ok.

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

Finish little things here and there on the robot, practice, then get some sleep.

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

As of the beginning of yesterday, team 1712 had to:

Optimize Autonomous
Practice
Make any fixes if they come up

Other then that we're looking pretty good!

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

umm... build half our robot?

not even kidding, that's the sad thing :-/

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

You mean you are half done? Go home and go to sleep. We are just starting assembly and still finishing machining. We are the ones in trouble.

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

1236 still has parts to mount, but all the code's done :rolleyes:
we can hit the low goal, the high one is still up in the air :p
we've got a working bot, hooray!

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

Team 1843

All Programming
Build Battery Enclosure for shipping crate
Pick Robot Driver
Test Drives
Team Number on robot
T-shirts

Are we a little behind or what?

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

Make robot drive more straight
Put a ball-dumper on the top so we have SOME way of scoring
Find a way to get balls in robot
'Decorate' robot

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

electronics board
programming
test
fix what did not work
practice
fix those new problems
.
.
.
pack it up
punish those who were uninvolved and joined merely for college credit
sleep

if i seem slightly mean it is because we theoretically have a team of 20. we only have 4 consistent people, 4 occasional people, two rare people and the rest never came at all to help at any point in the process. i bet they don't even know the rules.

Re: what to finish in the next 5 days
 

Develop and build shooter deflector
Create turret motion
Create hopper
Cut & Bend Lexan panels
Program it

We...ummm... have alot to do.
