Chassis:
in the center of planning our chassis, we set several goals:
-
Low center of gravity.
-
Easy and quick maintenance.
-
A highly efficient driving system.
-
Power and speed.
-
Reducing the weight of the driving system.
Shooting system:
-
Designed to a large range of shooting distance with maximum accuracy using certain calibration values.
-
Amplifying the pistons’ velocity to maximum shooting velocity.
Shooting “Ears”:
-
Determine the angle at which the ball leaves the catapult to achieve various ranges to shoot or to pass the ball over the Truss.
-
Lowering the “Ears” To pick the ball up from the carpet.
-
2 modes to the autonomous to handle 2 balls at once or only one ball.
Collecting System:
-
Designed to maximize the flexibility in handling the ball with different alliance robots.
-
Removal of a ball from either side.
-
Collecting and ejecting a ball at different heights.
-
Holding a ball safely while driving.
-
Preventing Opponent’s ball from entering the robot.
Control System:
-
Autonomous mode of shooting, driving collecting and shooting again.
-
Using an onboard camera to see the Goal and recognize a Hot Goal in Autonomous mode.
-
Various shooting ranges by controlling the shooting angle (PID).
-
Controlling the collecting system accordingly- different states were achieved by PID control.
-
Controlling the driving system and the gears.
