Week #: 4

Quick Summary:

  • We took apart our robot in order to fix some massive problems. We got a good start.

What We Accomplished: We rebuilt our robot today in the hopes of accomplished the following things: a lower center of gravity, the back of the robot raised high enough so that minerals can travel underneath it, a higher middle wheel so that it is easier to go over the crater, making the wheels even so that the robot travels straight, the back of the robot needs to be smooth so that nothing gets caught on the lander and prohibits the robot from lifting the robot up or lowering it down, a hook that isn’t so hard to attach onto the lander, and equal weight distribution for the robot. We got a good start but did not finish it.
