Well it does have to have a hand to receive the ball from another hand, and we went over the abrupt release but we fear damaging our robot, which is a high probability with such speeds. The ball is actually 11.2 ounces and the rest of the arm is a little more than 2 pounds if that helps. And...
Hi guys and gals, I have a robotics related engineering problem I need help with.
So, for our robot we are building, it has a centripetal arm that launches a foam basketball. The arm is 2 foot in diameter rotating from the center with 3 pounds on each side (including projectile and...
Sensors?
Here is the known facts:
Mounted around 5 foot off of the floor.
"see" objects anywhere from 3 feet to 54 feet away that are anywhere from 2 feet to 8 feet tall.
Will then take a distance feedback and use that information to calculate a needed arch and force to make a basket...
So, For FIRST FRC robotics, We have made 3 different objectives to research, and I decides to start with the projectile.
We need to launch an 8" diameter foam basketball into a goal that's 18" diameter. We can be anywhere from 3feet to 54 feet away.
We had an idea of using the classic...
I'm relatively new to physics, (17 going to college physics next year), but I believe you have everything you need to understand the output in Kilowatts per hour.
Kilowatts= (Amperes * Volts)/1000
Kw= (.005263 * 18)/1000
Kw= .000094734
^here above i converted the milli amperes into...
