Location: HI 308
Time: 8:00-8:55
Members Present: Hayden, Pulkit, Bryan
Topics:
- Tested 1st shell, found it to be obsolete
- too heavy, back wheel doesn’t sit on track
- reflectance sensor not able to record properly, no data extraction available
- shell rubs into AEV arm, arm becomes slanted/off balance
- didn’t make it over the incline
- too heavy, back wheel doesn’t sit on track
- Applied and tested final shell
- works very well with current chassis, moved battery onto arm instead of having it placed on bottom of vehicle
- found to be helpful, less swaying during travel
- top cover does not fit onto shell because of wires, will file a hole into it
- also sits on shell in a very loose manner, will use tape
- did not inhibit AEV travel at all, data was recorded properly unlike last design iteration
- works very well with current chassis, moved battery onto arm instead of having it placed on bottom of vehicle
Upcoming topics:
- Make some tweaks to AEV shell to have top fit on
- Further edit code for final performance test
- Progress Report 3 due Monday
