Week of November 18th Summary

This week, Chris, Paul and, Jeremy met on Tuesday the 19th, Wednesday the 20th, and Thursday the 21st in lab. All of worked on the project 11 hours in total this week. We accomplished as a team figuring out the parts we needed to fabricate for this project by taking dimensions from our toy truck. We then designed all of the parts we needed on SolidWorks creating 3D models and drawings, and we created a test assembly of our crane mechanism with a moving motion analysis. All of these can be found in the following blog posts. Not much work was done on the Arduino code this week however, because most of it is complete, we will be finalizing the code and posting it to the blog next week.

The project is going very well, our goals from last week have been met, and our plan is exactly the same as it was set to be, and we feel our project will be a success.

Goals Set For Next Week:

1. The parts will be submitted for fabrication next week, since our solid models are complete.
2. A more fine tuned Arduino code will be completed including the final servo and push button, along with our LED Screen.
