stuff

TO-DO:
1. make cd drive grappler

• cutting the protruding edges(might need to do that after we have training for BE138)
• add the mount to the axle
• add the lifter
• interfacing this grappler to the robot

2. testing stability of driving motors by timer

• can do this on Mon(will get MCU on Sat)( the motors arrive on Mon)

3. get wheels

• Brandon could possibly contribute what they had last year if he found it.
• bought 3" roller blade wheels from amazon with other team

4. testing ultrasonic sensors(not doing this for now)

• can start on Mon when it arrives

5. system block diagram

6. tape detector on breadboard

7. interface sensors to the robot by modifying Roach library

• sonar sensor
• bumper

obstacles to tackle:

1. positioning perpendicular to the wall in the beginning
• solutions: Caio's Bump Sensor strategy, Andre's Sonar  Sensor Stratgy
2. putting the crown back to our throne
1.  
3. figuring out the size of base and wheel

some ideas:

1. ping pong ball casters
2. raising the beacon detector above 11"

unessential ideas:

1. LCD screen communicating with Arduino through UART
2. playing theme songs
• can try to find library that translate MIDI format to values which will be written to AD pins.
