Many of my class activitieas include computer modeling of devices to see what the projected outcomes wil be without having to build it first.
We put one together for the robot drivetrain which gives velocity and time to cross the playing field, along with the sizes and tooth counts of the components needed to achive the desired results.
If anyone would be interested in how to set one of these up, I will post some tips that will show how to do it using any spreadsheet.
Good luck all!
