Accomplishments
In the week before fall break, our team completed the design review report. I put in substantial work into the following sections: Abstract, II. Use-Case Requirements, IV. Design Requirements, V-E. Design Trade Studies (Robotics), VI-D. System Implementation (Subsystem – XY Robot), and VII. Test, Verification and Validation. I also oversaw editing and revision for a number of sections I didn’t directly write for.
Progress
Being one of the final major housekeeping tasks, we’re off to the races after having completed the report. Ordered parts will have arrived once we return from fall break, and I plan on construction immediately of the robotics subsystem. Besides the assembly of the robot, I intend to 3D print the remaining components that have already been designed, and design up the custom cup-holding mount which will be compatible with the original design in an Autocad software. Progress is on schedule.
