Meeting 2011 05 18

Present: Andrew, Henry, Simon, Wim, Zac

Agenda

Wheel motor and linear actuator both in New Zealand. Andrew to check store for them in the next couple of days.

Mounting Brackets:

Schematics

Housing for all PCBs

Speed sensor found, data sheet also found.

Steering motor arrived! Yay!

Test using a power supply in the power electronics lab. We need to think about pot holes while designing the mounting brackets.

Inductance sensor found. We don't need to worry about finding other sensors

We could mock up some matlab to look at the accuracy of the speed of the sensor

Think about breakout board for the motor driver, how will this effect the ground planes? Smaller PCBs?

Long term plan is to completely replace the student board. Short term just hack the board to work.

Single and Double layer are etched each week on a thurs.

Brief read. More feedback next week.

The same as last week.

Schematics, PCBs. Talk to Blair about PCBs being made.

Brackets

Talk to Dave/Jack
