Inter/ Adv - Week of Dec.18th


Your priority this week should be Programing.  Everyone should complete the Developing level of programing for their area of choice.

I will be coming around for a interview to give you a preliminary mark in all 5 credits.

For TD reassessment:

  • Take a multi part design
  • Export tile blocks for each component
  • Export a tile block for it assembled
  • Exemplary Example

Robotics Research Projects are due at the end of the week in a Robotics Research Folder. All Parts:


Part1

Part2

Part3

Assessment


For part 3 you should document your process:

  • your design process
  • iterations
  • difficulties
  • what worked & what didn't 
  • the code for your robot


All CAD designed parts should also be put in proper engineering design tile blocks and uploaded to your TDD folder.

RRP checklist for completion

RRP checklist for completion

Non-FTC Robot:

Part 1

  • Research on history of one system answering:

    • What is the history behind the company developing the robot?

    • What is the history behind the robot itself?

    • Is the robot teach-pendant(remote controlled) or autonomous?

    • What role does the robot fill that humans can’t? Why can’t humans fill that role?

    • What features or subsystems make this robot unique?

    • Presentations should include imagery as well as video where appropriate.

    • Sources 


Part 2

  • Watch all the videos and answer all the questions


Part 3

  • Your task is to propose and create a remote controlled robot device or game

using an infrared remote control.
  • or

  • Basic Guided project

    • Do task 1, 2, and 3

FTC Game Mechanism:


Part 1

  • Explanation of the design process

  • Game research and reading of game manual

    • Based on this a simple sketch of an idea for a mechanism

  • Research of a team and answer the following

    • What type of drivetrain did they use?

    • What sort of submechanisms made that robot successful?

    • Did the team make anything exceptional happen?


Part 2

  • Watch all the videos and answer all the questions


Part 3

  • Create a sub mechanism for game play

    • CAD Design

    • Built (prototype)

    • Program/Control
