Hocki is a Meltybrain, a combat robot that spins itself to attack. Unlike other robots, which have a stationary frame and spinning weapon, in this robot the entire frame is the weapon, and the robot spins itself to attack. This allows the robot to store more energy while spinning slower, which allows for hits to connect better. Such a design requires a control system which uses sensors to estimate the position of the robot. This robot utilizes custom circuitry and software to allow the frame to move, spin, and attack.

=== Mechanical ===
===== Overall Design and Construction =====
The robot is comprised of an aluminum ring with aluminum top and bottom plates bolted on. All interior components (electronics, drive assembly) are sandwiched between the two rings.

One priority in the design is increasing the moment of inertia as much as possible by moving heavier components outwards. The main structure of the robot is the aluminum ring, which is CNC machined out of a single piece. This CNC machined part was ordered from Xometry due to obstacles in HAAS training and shop access due to the COVID-19 pandemic. After receiving the ring, it was tapped to accept screws which hold the top and bottom plates as well as the impactor tooth.
The top and bottom plates were machined on the waterjet cutter and sanded to fit the grooves in the ring, as well as the motor and wheel mounts.

Another priority is keeping the center of mass centered at the midpoint of the wheels. If it were not, the kinematic center of rotation would be far from the dynamic center of rotation, resulting in drift and preventing the accelerometers from accurately measuring the centripetal acceleration. Thus care is taken in the placement of interior and exterior components to balance the robot.

We selected a 1-tooth design as the 1 tooth can cancel the weight of the motors in the back.

===== Mounting =====
Thermal pads used to adhere ESCs to bottom plate. Thin metal bar screwed to bottom plate above ESCs to improve stability and limit movement.
PCB holder screwed into bottom and top plates. PCB is mounted onto 3D-printed PCB holder using 4 screws and rubber spacers.

===== Overall Design =====
===== Low-Level Systems =====
===== Controls and Data Logging =====
We derived equations to calculate rotational velocity from measured centripetal acceleration without needing to know the exact center of mass by using data from a pair of accelerometers. With this method, we calculated four rotational velocities and averaged them to find the rotational velocity of the robot with minimized noise. We then integrated this velocity to get the angle the robot was oriented, setting zero to be the initial direction the robot was facing. However, even with this method we found that the position of the robot would drift at rest but was relatively accurate at higher rotational speeds.

To translate while spinning, we pulsed each motor for half a spin

We logged each axis of every accelerometer, as well as the average rotational velocity and the position of the robot at a frequency of 20 Hz. We stored this data in a .txt file on an SD card inserted onto the Teensy board. To log, we added 16 lines of data to a buffer before flushing the lines to the file.
