Meeting Notes 2008 April 06

Spent the day
  • finishing solder of components
  • planning the mounting them onto our cardboard chasis
  • soldering an extra boarduino, caps onto motors, and making cables

The whisker sensors will be a pain to mount onto the bot. They normally mount by soldering them onto a PC board. But we don't have that. We'll either glue them down, or press fit them into holes or figure something else out.

We would have got more mounted, but I forgot to bring 4-40 hardware to mount a few of the pieces.

Next time we might finish construction. Then it's on to programming.

In a few weeks we may be ready to move on to mini sumo kits.
