Goals

  • Go over prototyping results and decide what to do with new information

  • Discuss full-scale prototype plan - Emily

  • Begin selection of frame members

  • Begin discussion about connection design (member connections, motor hubs)

  • Start outlining CAD tasks

  • Discuss wheel selection

  • Continue motor calculations - Asha and Caleb

New Tasks

General Notes

  • Double bogie

    • Locking issue: change around the lengths, consider having the differential bar closer to the center

  • Triple bogie

    • Locking issue, have an optimal dimension for the linkages

  • Rocker bogie

    • Not as good with tall objects, overall very smooth

 

  • Take inspiration from arm team's prototyping plan

  • List of test criteria, what we're hoping to gain from prototyping
