Duke Robotics is a student-run robotics program that seeks to create robots for competition, inter- and intrascholastically, as well as hosting speakers, offering teaching sessions, and working at volunteer events.
Sensors should be in by today - finish motor control and start integrating the sensors
Meeting at 20:00 in Innovations lab
Meeting at 20:00 in Old Chem 01 computer lab to design Battlebots in Solidworks
SWE and Robotics will be putting on a showing of the film "Bots High". Sumobots competition will be held at the same time. More details as this is planned out.
Parts should be in for the UAV, so we'll get the basic control system up and running. If we have extra people, they will program the sumobots for the competition we'll be holding in conjunction with the Bots High Screening on the 6th of October. Prize will be an Arduino Uno. The code that runs the QTI is right here.
Meeting is to be held in Old Chem 01 (the computer lab). You will start designing parts for your BattleBot.
Today we're going to work on sumobots for a competition to be held on October 6th. Prizes will be determined based on how many people attend tonight's meeting. Link: here
Meeting is held in Old Chem 01 (the computer lab) and we go over a few tutorials in Solidworks.
Jennifer will be covering a series of tutorials in Solidworks! Meeting time will be 13:00 on Sunday in Social Sciences 228.
Sam and I will be giving you the rundown of how to program in C++. Meeting will be at 20:00 again as usual, and will probably run to about 22:00. A tenative list of things to be covered are: primitives, conditional statements, for and while loops, pointers and references, classes, templates, and three popular problems, specifically segfaults, invalid pointers, and infinite loops. We may or may not have pizza, so keep checking back here to make sure. A link to arduino has been posted following the meeting on this page
The second meeting we'll start working on designing Battlebots, and on reconnecting the AUV. We'll also let you guys work on Sumobot stuff for the competition (with more details forthcoming). Meeting will be held at 20:00 in the Innovations lab and will run until around 21:30 or whenever we decide to leave.
The first meeting will be held in the Innovations Lab at 20:00 to about 21:30 on Thursday, September 8th. We will go through sample code in PBASIC to get you started in using BOE-Bots.
Some sample code can be found here. You will need the Basic Stamp Editor Program found here. A pdf of the instruction manual for the Boe-bot can be found
