Connecting the Dots

Team Power House is excited to start connecting and testing our different subsystems in the coming weeks! Pictured above is the newly built second iteration of our structure with the linear actuators wired up for testing. Having this structure completed, and the associated tests completed, is crucial to the progress of this project as we will begin installing all of the other components into the structure very soon. The new structure is sturdier and has increased modularity for testing and transport purposes. Once the structure has been fully tested, the team will begin installing all the other subsystems such as the charging system, the dock, and the robot itself! The charging system is nearing completion and is currently being tested. Similarly, the robot control component is in the works as scripts are being written to autonomously control the robot. Progress on all these componets will allow us to begin system integration. System integration is when we will connect all componets and begin testing two or more componets together and eventually the entire system. We look forward to seeing our progress come together and produce our final result!
