Project Night
Posted: February 18th, 2010 | Author: Tony | Filed under: Robotics Club | No Comments »The Black Bear Robotics club hosted it’s first ever project night recently. With a whopping one perrson attending who was not actually in the club! Gotta celebrate the small victories sometimes… Basically Project night is where you bring all the stuff you’re working on or want to mess with to one place and go to town. The idea is very similar to a Hackerspace.
Trying to figure out why the control system is on the fritz
I worked on assembling the control board for a Blimpduino. Other members worked on trouble shooting the electronics system on our T-shirt launching robot, fabricating what will hopefully be a small stepper motor controlled CNC machine, troubleshooting a homebrew Tesla coil and playing with arduinos. We hope to make these project nights a weekly occurrence as it was pretty fun and a good way to get stuff done.
