FRC 2010 Robot Shipped

Posted on February 24th, 2010

Yesterday, was the “ship day” for all the robotics teams that compete in the FIRST program. We have been having some issues with our Robot, specifically, our kinematics. We are using Meccanum wheels and it seems that our configuration is just not working well. The frame seems to be taking a lot of the stress from the robot. During the three weeks break before the competition, I will be re-working the code, and hopefully find a way to balance the right motor control.

Now that the robot has shipped, I will be able to spend more time focusing on Optics and the websites that I work on. It would be nice to finally grind through some C and labview in hopes to post some good tutorials. I’m also interested in learning how to develop apps for the iphone.
