Today we start with the assembly of the mechanism for the launcher.
Basically the job is to build the previously thought ideas with the
available parts. We expect favorable results that match the calculations
previously made.

We had to reanalyze the gear we had done because after the demonstration of efficacy we
have seen that the speed of the rotating wheels, the currently works as the pitcher isnt
enough for the ball to reach the level we need.
We returned to perform calculations regarding the relation between the gears and have
implemented the use of other gear so that we can get as much rpm of the engines.

Today we started with the calculations for the assembly of collector and improve ball
pitcher. It is extremely important the angle of inclination of the collector for a good delivery
of the ball to the pitcher to achieve the desired release. We had some problems with the
number of engines available to us. There were several models to be analyzed for the
collector as well as for the pitcher. After testing we will see if the current model satisfies all
the requirements, otherwise, we will have to modify it.
After the tests, we have seen that the speed of the collector is
very low. We need to rise to the ball launcher with a higher
speed.
We initially planned to use a chain mechanism balls collector.
When assembling the collector with the chain we have noticed
that the speed seemed diminished, so we decided to add a
band
Whenever we modify something about the mechanism also
we modify the program.
We extend the distance between the wheels of the base,
instead of using four engines we would be using two.
Through a system of gears we could move all four wheels with
only two engines.
After analyzing the current situation of the collector and
seeing their current flaws we decided that the band that used
to elevate the ball to the pitcher needed something to keep
the ball on his way, we implemented fins that are attached to
the band so as to have less derailment.
The problem is that it takes us a little longer ascension with this
method than with the previous one.
Previously for the pitcher we used two wheels with opposite rotating
direction and the same speed, i mean, with a separation distance of 10
cm between each wheel by the friction force we get a parabolic motion.
With current model of the robot we got a good distance range . What
we should improve would be the way to collect balls.
By keeping collector filled with balls, it doesn't get the maximum engine
power, it's feasible that for the desire throw of the ball we need the
engine at max speed in order to trhow the ball as well as it's possible.
Handling the height of the band is essential to achieve a good throw
without subtracting speed from the pitchers.
The placement of the band was not very productive so we decided to
take it and minimize its height with the plate serving as a rail.
After several practices we have noticed that the dimensions of the field
are essential cuz with them we can calculate the speed the balls need
to reach.
At the time of setting all the details and check the dimensions, we
modified the angle of the rail collector causing this an inconvenience
when throwing the ball.
We must consolidate the robot base so that all parts are attached
securely to prevent vibrations, avoiding any kind of incident when
competing.
Soon we'll handle the positions of the sensors and undertake tasks to
each one.
It is of utmost importance the proper administration of the sensors
along with good programming in order to obtain points during the
autonomous period that lasted 15 seconds at the beginning of each
match.

We've had some problems during the assembly, the robot
didn't performed completely with the assigned functions, I
mean, it didn't collect the balls from the floor which let us to
disarm the robot so as to find the exact spot.
When assembling back we had some drawbacks when putting
up the robot, the movement wheels spinning at high speed,
apparently didn't touch the ground and the robot structure
couldn't move correctly.
There are several strategies that after observing and
analyzing we decided to adopt.
The use of gears with the number of teeth required for each
assignment.
Using multiple gears forming a gear system to reduce the use
of motors.
What causes to us some problems now is the assembly of the
frame to lift the other robot during the competition. It's a little
uncertain to know the weight of the robot we have to raise, so
as to calculate if it will be possible to lift it.
They must be analyzed various factors such as weight, height
of the structure that will allow us to pick it up and take us time
to achieve the lifting

We lose a lot of time calculating the angle indicated for the collector and even more for
the pitcher.
When we finally found the angle indicated, we measure the sides of the robot and saw
that reached 45 cm are allowed.
Every time I went back to arm we reduced the size or the number of parts.
The challenge requires several components as they are: devising models, calculate,
check operating and maintaining an esthetic as much as possible.
The peer group has people enough specialized in the area where they belong.
The builder is responsible specifically everything that relates to the mechanical part of
the robot
The designer specifically to see the feasibility of the design in question.
The programmer is responsible for all the design and functionality of the program,
working with the drivers to chat about some changes.
The driver was specifically carrying handles just testing the robot, it is important that
the driver familiarize with its management to achieve the best possible results.
In the group there is enough communication which is extremely important for us
because so that we can discuss the conflicts and provide possible solutions.
Last time we had problems when management control due to the settings made by the
programmer, controls that activate the launcher and the collector next to each other
causing confusion for the driver
After a chat as group, all members agreed it would be beneficial to have a control with
the front of the robot is interchangeable.
During the practices we used to have some problems with the signal. The cortex lost
the connection to the control.
The battery connection to the cortex used to disconnect after blows, that could be
solved with a 9V battery connected to the cortex.
The rods are normally used aluminum think the best would be the robot didn't have
much weight, which at that time we didn't think about is that when lifting the other
robot we would need to have more weight.
After analyzing we decided to change some pieces to gain a little more weight.
It is important to good weight distribution. At first the lack of experience we had certain
problems when placing the cortex and battery.
At first we placed the cortex and battery of a side guided by esthetics forgetting what is
most important to its proper functioning. With this, the robot couldn't work well.
