This week for Labs 9 A, B, and C, the engineers completed Performance Test 2 where they developed a code for the chosen current design that would reach the gate, pause, maneuver to pick up the R2D2 unit and return to the starting point. Relevant performance test data was collected to provide information about the AEV’s navigation of the track. This helped the team understand if any changes needed to be made and to see where the AEV was lacking.
Takeaways:
- To make efficient use of time, the team will need to delegate work as to make the most progress during lab and get ahead for future goals
- The team will need to continually test to make sure the servo motor and battery are working so that the tests are consistent
