Acrylic/Duron “Shelves”
Force Token
Mechanism
Driver
Arduino
Phototransistors
for IR Sensing
Battery
DC Motor Driven Wheels

3. Concept 3: Simple Force Delivery Method
Concept 2: Sensing
Concept 3: Simple Force Delivery Method
Arduino interrupt and internal clock to measure period of IR signal
Low pass, high pass, or band pass filtering
Servo-linkage mechanism lifts a ramp to dispense Force Tokens into desired bin
Force Token 2 1
Servo w/ Arm

4. Concept 4: Rotating Ramp
Concept 5: Multiple-arm delivery method
Add in a friction drive (or gears) powered by a DC motor to allow top platform to rotate relative to the rest of the robot
Additional degree of freedom
Seesaws
Tape
Motor
Top View of Ramp
Top View of Board & Bot
Side View of Bot
Force Tokens
Servo

5. Responsibilities
Mindtribe approach – Each team member will work together on the highest priority objective rather than completely divvying up the work Michael/Joey – Experience with mechatronic-like projects; willing to work on circuitry for hours on end Ankur – Will use his MBA/factory-building/underwater welding skills to project manage and be a boss Tim – Our software/Arduino expert (PhDs know how to debug) All – mechanical design, fabrication, testing, chugging Red Bull and devouring Skittles

6. Schedule Remaining questions
2/17: Tim Returns!
2/20: Ankur Returns!
2/19 Second Review: Finish designing/assembling minimum viable robot
2/24 Third Review: All sensing circuitry and basic control working; Begin testing out Force Delivery mechanisms
3/1 Fourth Review: Done with entire robot – optimize code/minor mechanical improvements
Are we allowed to choose where we place our Force Tokens on the robot?
Are we given any phototransistors?
Are there any motors that we can borrow for the project? If so, what kind of motors?
