We have brainstormed and explored different button/pin designs incorporating different aspects of the music industry. We have also experimented with colors, textures, and styles to make the buttons more appealing. Next meeting we plan to finalize the selected designs based on team feedback and maybe do a vote on what button designs we should manufacture for competitions. Currently, the only dependency aspect is waiting on team feedback. Next time, we would like guidance on the most effective way to present and communicate design choices to the rest of our team, like maybe a Google Form to vote on what design we should keep or suggestions of design ideas and improvements.
Week 3 & 4 Technical Post Design Technical Teams: Chassis, Intake/Indexing, Shooter, Tower 1. Summary During Weeks 3 and 4, the technical teams finalized prototype testing and shifted into a strong design phase focused on CAD development and system integration. The chassis group completed chassis CAD, tested vision systems using the Limelight and RoboRIO, and refined swerve module encoder testing. The shooter group finalized hood and baseplate designs through testing and extensive CAD work while refining shooting angles and adjustability. The intake/indexing team completed subsystem CAD integration, added a pivot mechanism, prototyped hopper belts, and finalized coding structures while refining designs in CAD. The tower team prototyped hook designs, researched optimal gear ratios, advanced elevator CAD development, and began preparing code for future testing. 2. Focus for Weeks 3 & 4 In Week 3, the primary goal was completing prototype testing and finalizing subsystem...
