Prithu’s Status Report 09/24

The first part of this week was dedicated to our proposal presentation – which I gave on Wednesday. Towards the middle of the week, our fabricated PCBs arrived and we began construction on the robots starting Wednesday night. We were able to reflow and solder 3 robot boards and attach all of the components (i.e. servos, wheels, electromagnet). We also designed and 3D printed a support for the front of the robot which is needed since the robot only has two wheels. We were able to get one robot fully working, but are still waiting to pick up the Neopixels (which I think arrived yesterday) to finish the other two. Our plan for this weekend is to start development on the firmware, CV, and motion planning code.
