šŸ„”Couch PotatošŸ„”

Overview - Couch Potato

We call this project "Couch Potato". - Who needs a wheelchair if you have a couch with wheels! Our team is designing  a mobile couch using motors and coding from an arduino.

Current Project Status:

2/28/2018- We got a new motor controller. Data sheet  User Manual Arduino Library and Examples Ion studio download etc.
2/14/2018- We are planning to make the mount of the couch and how to attach the motors wires. For the coding we have finished
2/9/2018 - Currently we are coding for the motor controller and joystick with the arduino and designing the frame
1/19/2018 - Kicked off this project.  This Robot is based around an electric wheel chair.

Next Steps:

List all the current steps in order of priority. Mark "Pending", "In Progress", "Road Block", "Done"
  1. Test Motors - Done - What need to be done?  What do we need?
  2. Plan frame - Done - Possibly tube stock.  Need to talk to Welding teacher and student team
  3. Motor Controller - Done - Does the motor controller work. so we have Speck or data sheet for it.
  4. Build frame - Done - asking welding team to help us create our design 
  5. Final frame - In Progress - We made the design of the frame and now waiting for the welding team to finish welding the frame
  6. Code testing - In Progress - we are testing our code on an RC car and see if the code is working right.
  7. Drawing out a plate - Done - we are drawing a plate that we can screw and weld to connect the motor to the frame.

Mechanical Configuration:
