RoboCup Prototype - 2

Posted on 8:15 PM by ersinaytac

Since the due date to shoot the qualification video is closing we're working harder. Considering the difficulties causing by the camera we mostly on a hail mary pass to finish the project. We got all of the pieces we need and mounted on the robot.

Firstly, fixed the motors on the motor mount, and attach the pinion gears on the motors shaft. Also did the same thing for the omni wheels. The gears have the ratio which we have decided before, and later, if we want faster acceleration or want a different top speed we can reach our goal by changing the gears.



For controlling the electric motors we are using electric speed controls. Since our electric motors are brushless we bought the appropriate ESC s'.



The next step is fixing back the motor mount to the chassis.



There are a couple of wrong things on the prototype we already know. The angles of the wheels looks like shifted both in vertical and horizontal by small degrees, which will affect how the robot drives. We'll see if these changes are critical. Hopefully this week we will make the robot move and see how it works.
