Mount Actuators • The actuators from Firgelli Automations came in Wednesday February 1. • They will be mounted on the underside of the driving console.
Mount Seat • The seat will be permanently mounted now that our client has come to sit in the go kart. • This will be done by implementing cross members along the frame so that the seat has something to bolt on to. • The pre-threaded holes on the underside of the seat will be used.
Steering • As stated before the steering will be controlled by our Dayton gear motor. • Jeff has taken the appropriate measurements so that the motor can be integrated into the steering column seamlessly. • This will be accomplished by mounting the motor at the same angle as the steering column and connecting it via a chain drive
Joystick and Microcontroller • Both the joystick and microcontroller have been ordered. • Joystick will be implemented into the side console of the seat. • A console will be mounted on the left arm of the chair to mimic our clients left hand drive wheel chair. • The arm will be able to flip up out of the way
Microcontroller • The microcontroller that was ordered is a Arduino Uno Board Rev3 • It will allow us to run all of the necessary electronic parts that we have • Brahm has been working diligently on learning, programming and testing the c-code for our microcontroller
Future Work • Raymond: mounting the seat Hours worked: 17 • Jeff: actuator mounting Hours worked:25 • Brahm: microcontroller implementation Hours worked: 15
