IK Arm Project Timeline

September

• Labview Communication through Serial port
  • Receiving and interpretting data from AVR board
  • Formatting data and transmitting to the AVR board to control motor drivers
  • Labview GUI
    • Control of motor speed
    • Display joint angles from sensor feedback

October

• Forward Kinematic Control
  • PID control of each joint positions
    • Integrate sensor data into a feedback loop
    • Tweak PID parameters for optimal control
  • GUI
    • Control of PID parameter values
    • Control of joint angle next to joint angle displays from sensor feedback
    • Calculate and display end effector coordinates

November

• Velocity Kinematic Control (interested only in end points, not paths)

December

• Nothing
