Eurobot Senior: Pathfinding
We made a lot of progress last week. A big part of this is the pathfinding code: We can now drive to a specific waypoint in our tactics while measuring lidar data, and reroute if an enemy is in the way. It works surprisingly well and we’re now working on … Weiterlesen …
Student Robotics: Lessons Learned
There was another live stream on Saturday, March 9th. Every team member watched this with great excitement from home. We thought the live stream was really great. Both the structure and a few entertainment elements kept boredom at bay. Overall, we are very satisfied with our placement and learned a … Weiterlesen …
Eurobot Senior: Further Works on the Prototype
We continued to work on the prototype this week. We worked on the belt drive and continued to work on the driving mechanics. In contrast to last year, this year we are using a stepper to drive the belt drive, which means that we can precisely track positions on the … Weiterlesen …
Student Robotics: It’s alive!
We made it!!! Our robot drives. After a few difficulties at the start, our robot finally drove very straight and well. Of course we were very happy about that. We immediately took out our cell phones to take photos and videos of it to show our families and friends later. … Weiterlesen …
Student Robotics: It’s all about the Team Image!
A new week has begun for us and we started it on Monday by spending a free hour as a team discussing what our robot should look like in the end. We have recorded a small provisional sketch. We also then thought about what materials and tools we wanted to … Weiterlesen …
CanSat: Unspeakable Anticipation
We are already so excited about the launch campaign. We are also looking forward to sightseeing in Bremen, as we have never been to this city before. To be honest, the only association that we have with this city at the moment is that it is the home of the … Weiterlesen …
CanSat: The Chemistry behind our Secondary Mission
We have previously discussed the process of collecting soil samples in this blog. However, what is the next best step after collecting those samples? Our goal is to analyze the soil samples for sulphur residues using chemical experiments. Initially, we conduct a hepar sample to qualitatively detect sulphur. Through testing, … Weiterlesen …
Student Robotics: Closer to Homologation!
Hello everyone! There are some innovations in our robot. After we had mastered the friendlies very satisfactorily and we were therefore very happy, we immediately continued working with great motivation to ensure that our robot is perfect. The ballcasters are now installed. This doesn’t fit perfectly into the cube, but … Weiterlesen …
Eurobot Senior: LIDAR and Grabbing the Plants
We have spent the last two weeks developing our gripping system and working on our ROS alternative. We have now written our own script to get the lidar data into our own map. At the moment we are also working on getting the current position data from the robot into … Weiterlesen …
