My robot is my significant other. It makes me happy, sometimes it makes me sad, i wish it would lose some weight but it is always there for me. - rachelholladay [more]
A tutorial made by Cobra Commanders (Team #498) showing a detailed step by step walk-through of how to set up the java development environment for the 2015 season. Link in Description
This document’s purpose is to illustrate the architecture and design of the robot software written to achieve the goals of the 2014 FRC design challenge “Arial Assist”.
Following in the footsteps of many other spreadsheets, this presents the motor curves with an analysis of the electrical series resistance of the 2014 Control System.
The attached files contain a guide to the process of analyzing the game, developing a strategy and creating a decision matrix for use in evaluating concept options. A Gantt chart for the 2015 season is also included
The attached zip file contains a SolidWorks assembly and associated parts files for a printable wheel which was tested at the 2014 T.H.O.R. off season event. The ABS wheel survived the day of competition with no noticeable wear or stress.
This is a report on testing complete by FRC Team 234 to evaluate performance and power consumption of 2, 4 and 6 CIM, and also 4 CIM + 2 Mini-CIM drives. The 2015 roboRIO was used for data capture.
This is the CAD for 2014 off season drive system. The CAD is more or less complete, but will be finalized after kickoff if we decide to use it this season.
As part of our beta testing, we used the roboRIO for some drive system evaluation testing, capturing data not available through the 2014 control. We identified an operational effect of one of the control features that we felt would be good to share.
In 2014 ILITE used a HUD mounted to safety glasses to convey robot information to the driver. The paper outlines the design, use and lessons learned from this experience.
