Steady Progress

Here we are at the end of the third week and our focus has shifted from conceptualization and design to "Let's get the parts made!".

That's right. Fabrication has begun on designs that have been finalized. This includes the drive system gearbox, pulleys/belts, and part of the chassis.

Good news on the programming front. Mr. Cosme is working hard to upgrade our software capabilities with the encoders and other sensors giving us improved performance in this area.

Finally, once the robot is running, we'll be testing it at a gym where a full size field will be setup. More details to follow on this.

Here a few snapshots from the week...
