So we decided to shrink our robot down by choosing a smaller robot base that is within our budget and easier to learn. I plan on ordering the iRobot Create 2 robotic base this week and during the week I have read and watched many tutorials on programming the motor controls of the robot.<\/p>\n<p>This week, I got started on learning and drawing up the CAD files for the parts that we would have to make ourselves such as the arm and the funnel for the gripper as shown below.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_91\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-91\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-91 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v1-300x291.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"291\" srcset=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v1-300x291.png 300w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v1-768x744.png 768w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v1.png 829w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-91\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Funnel design for the universal suction gripper<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-90 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v2-263x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"263\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v2-263x300.png 263w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v2.png 763w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 263px) 100vw, 263px\" \/><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_93\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-93\" style=\"width: 249px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-93 \" src=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v4-179x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"249\" height=\"417\" srcset=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v4-179x300.png 179w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamb0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/122\/2021\/02\/v4.png 469w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 249px) 100vw, 249px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-93\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The arm design that has a hollow middle as to not interfere with the line of sight of the camera on the robot when picking up object<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I also noticed that all the tutorials for the iRobot used microcontrollers like an Arduino, so we decided to add that to our parts list as well.
