In order of completion...
Drivetrain:
Gearboxes finishing tomorrow.
Frame finished tomorrow. (8020, bolts together!)
Wheels, pillow blocks, etc... finished tomorrow.
Hopefully a fully working drivetrain by end of the weekend.
Ball Pickup:
Prototyped and designed, going to manufacturing this weekend.
The full collection system should be done middle next week.
All parts in-house, or can be bought locally.
Ball Storage:
Prototyped and mostly designed.
All parts in-house, or can be bought locally.
Shooter:
The shooter itself was prototyped, and failed.
Going with another design while we'll further prototype, later.
The rest of the shooter mechanism is in design.
Much more to prototype before its final configuration.
Programming/Auto/Controls:
Err... This is ALWAYS our downfall.
Mostly, we know what we want to get feedback on, but how we're going to get that feedback is still in the air. In the meantime, we're dealing with resolution issues, and how design some of the mechanical system to work within that resolution. Most sensors in-house, or shall I say, in the KOP. Uhg...
