Action Log

  1. 01/03/2008 - Bottom plate prototype completed.
  2. 02/15/2008 - Top plate prototype completed.
  3. 03/18/2008 - Ground clearance concerns have prompted investigating into correcting.
    Notes - Possible fixes, larger omni wheels, moving wheels down.
  4. 03/30/2008 - Moving wheels down has been selected for fixing ground clearance.
  5. 04/08/2008 - Standoffs for the electrical boards up to the shell have been found and overall height for the robot has been finalized.
  6. 04/10/2008 - We have decided to go with pressing for creating space for output gears on the bottom plate. This allows us to move the wheels down for additional ground clearance.
  7. 04/10/2008 - Cutouts for motor wires need to be moved in some to allow for more slack and connection with electrical board.
  8. 04/15/2008 - Die for stamping bottom plate gear allowances has been made and the process produces successful results.
  9. 04/22/2008 - Bigger cutouts for drive motor cabling, addition of antenna support plate, standoff change.
