Couch Potato - Keeping Up with the Small Stuff

Couch Potato - Keeping Up with the Small Stuff

Miscellaneous Work 

We are still waiting on our frame; it takes time to build. While we wait, we continue to do various bits of
work pertaining to our project, such as any leftover coding (until we get this thing running, that is), and
finalizing any planning.


Team members: Darryl, Hazel, Chris, Francisco, Zachary

What Steps Did We Solve:

  1. Test Motors - Done - We have tested our motors, and they function correctly.
  2. Test Motor Controller - Done - We have tested our motor controller, and it functions correctly.
  3. Plan Frame - Done - We have designed a versatile frame for our couch, and visited the Welding class.

Next Steps:

 List all the current steps in order of priority. Mark "Pending", "In Progress", "Road Block", "Done"
  1. Build Frame - Pending - With our frame planned, we need to have the Welding team begin building it.
  2. Cleaning the Motors - In Progress - The motors are dirty, and need to be cleaned out.
  3. Finishing Touches on Frame Planning - In Progress - We need to answer a few questions regarding the frame.
  4. Testing Motor Control with Joystick and Coding - In Progress-  We need to use our coding and a joystick to check how the joystick controls the motor, and how will it steer.
