Build Camera/GPS mast #3

Closed griswaldbrooks closed 7 years ago

griswaldbrooks commented 7 years ago

Need to build mast on back of the robot to accommodate R200 and GPS. Need to locate the camera for best FoV first.

griswaldbrooks commented 7 years ago

Looks like about 12 inches from the bottom of the robot is a good height for the R200. Going to start there and should add some tuning parts for minor height and angle adjustment.

First version of mock-up mast. Two pieces of plastic hot glued to the robot. Twisted the R200 around until you couldn't see the front of the robot.

An object higher up can be seen.

But when it's pushed forward a few inches, it disappears.

Currently, the new mast subassembly is almost done. It doesn't include a GPS mounting area. The main mast and handle parts are done and mounted. The r200 enclosure is done but needs to be mounted to the mast and well as covers made.

Mast construction is complete. GPS, runstop, and r200 clear covers were installed this weekend.

There are many additional little things to fix and add, which will be outlined in other tickets.

They include:
