  1. College of Engineering and Technology Golf Swing Robot EE 486 Project Presentation Presented by Nasser Almarri

  2. EE Subdivision • Coordinator John Boring • Leader Nasser Almarri • Editor Charlie Siko • Faculty Advisors: Prof. Jerry Hatfield Dr. Walter Hopkins • Outside Project Advisor Eng. Art Mittendorf Presented by Nasser Almarri

  3. Project Overview System Block Diagram Design Changes VISUAL BASIC GUI Prototype Testing Encoder Cost Schedule Tasks Launch Monitor GUI Integration Outline Presented By Nasser Almarri

  4. Project’s Sponsor Presented by Nasser Almarri

  5. Project Overview • Design, Implement, and Assemble an EE subsystem of the Golf Swing Robot. • Read From the Launch Monitor • Read /Write to and from the controller • Controller is monitoring the encoder • Design Visual Basic GUI between Controller and computer. • Design Visual Basic GUI between the Launch Monitor and computer. Presented by Nasser Almarri

  6. System Block Diagram ETHERNET Controller PC Drive Digital Torque Amplifier Serial Port Launch Monitor Encoder To Servo Motor Presented by Nasser Almarri

  7. Design Changes • We will not assemble a complete ROBOT • ME Team Switched to a PAPER design • We designed the EE subsystem • We are building and testing the EE subsystem only Presented By Nasser Almarri

  8. Visual basic GUI Presented By Nasser Almarri

  9. Prototype Testing • PC Interface w/ Controller • VB GUI • Text file - Yterm2000 Encoder Position • Data Collection • Direct w/ Controller • PC Interface w/ Launch Monitor • VB GUI • Raw data files Presented by John Boring

  10. Launch Monitor Works with Golf Achiever software Connects with computer by serial port cable Outputs velocity and launch angle Used to optimize a golfer’s clubs Presented by John Boring

  11. Software Interfacing • Visual Basic GUI • Two separate software • Yterm2000 • Golf Achiever • One PC will be used • Multiple Connections • Shared GUI Presented by John Boring

  12. Potential Problem & Solution • Multiple Hardware • Port / connection problem • Controller • Ethernet connection • Launch Monitor • Serial port connection Presented by John Boring

  13. Integrating the Monitor & the GUI Methods to use Golf Achiever Software • Capitalize on Raw Data functions • Open Raw Data File • Save Raw Data File • Open those files from inside VB GUI Presented by John Boring

  14. Monitoring Elbow Position Presented by Charles Siko

  15. Background on Encoders • Used to determine position • Many types Linear/Rotary Absolute: each position is unique Incremental: position is relative Magnetic: durable, lower resolution Optical: high resolution, high speed Presented by Charles Siko

  16. Absolute Encoders • Singleturn- 360° is divided into digital values • Multiturn-in addition to the coded disk this includes an integrated gear which can count multiple revolutions • Typical Outputs Presented by Charles Siko

  17. Choice 1: BEI optical absolute encoder $680.00 Presented by Charles Siko

  18. Choice 2: Netzerprecision electrical absolute encoder $75.00** Presented by Charles Siko

  19. Cost - electrical subdivision $7000 limit Presented by Charles Siko

  20. Schedule Important Dates • 3/3-3/4  Finishing up Draft Status Report • 3/5 Draft Status Report Due • 3/5-2/9 Work on Final Status Report • 3/9-4/1 Work on Website • 4/1 Final Presentation Day Presented by Charles Siko

  21. Tasks This week: Charlie - Write up of encoder system including all specifications, diagrams, and possible mounting configurations. Nasser - Explanations of how controller/motor/GUI is integrated with any possible specifications. John - Write up of how to communicate with launch monitor with diagram of how it is set up w/computer. Specific code included if possible Next week: All parts ordered, continue working on reports Week of 3/15: Receiving Parts Week of 3/22: Assembly, troubleshooting Week of 3/29: Completing Final Documentation Presented by Charles Siko

  22. Questions ? John Boring Nasser Almarri Charlie Siko Presented by Charles Siko
