Hons. AI Genetic Algorithms

Hey Guys,

For this school year, I am taking a class called Honors Artificial Intelligence, and after finishing my current project, I decided to start posting about them.

Update: Teensy, VEX, Misc

Sup!
Here is a brief update of our progress in VEX, as well as an exploration of the Teensy 3.0, as well as a project that I finished a few weeks back!

Misc. Projects

Hey,

I have been posting ALOT today, mostly to catch up on the 9 months where I failed to post anything. In between the robotics team, I have a few ideas planned out. Now I'm just planning them out.

ROV 2012 - 2013

Hey guys!

ROV has now officially started and we have our new team roster for this year! With only 5 returning members out of a team of 13. Things will be tricky to get going, however I am confident we will be able to handle this well.

VEX Sack Attack Drive Train

Hey,

If you read my post on our vex transmission system last year, you would know that is consists of multiple motors that are switched to two different outputs depending on which output is locked by pneumatics. There was also a planetary gearset that would fuse inputs to form one output, essentially allowing us to have a dedicated drive motor so we could move. This year we decided to simplify things by taking out the planetary gearset. However we are keeping the differentials due to the flexibility offered by the ability to switch motors to different outputs.

Labyrinth

Hey,

For the past few days, I have been working on a labyrinth similar to the one Google made as shown here:

Summary of past 9 months

Hey again, back from 9 months of not posting! I kinda got lazy after robotics kicked up. Anyways I just wanted to summarize some of the progress made with VEX. We finished the robot, however I predict that is is only operating on 50% efficiency. Here is a post I made on vexforums with the username "anthonyl14107096" with an in depth description of our robot.

Here is a picasa album of our overall build: https://picasaweb.google.com/1126063...426/Drivetrain

And a video link of things in work: http://youtu.be/c1Ax40bncBQ

Here is an engineering notebook that we created for our system: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hlz07yskf55qilh/4194B%20ProjeXt.pdf

Hope you guys enjoy it!

VEX Progress Report

Hey guys!
     Making up for the lack of posts in a while, there will be a stream of updates to the variety of projects I'm currently working. In this post, the focus will be on VEX.

FRC Progress Report

Hey guys!
      It's been quite some time since the last post and there's a good reason to that. CNY Break! (Chinese New Year Break) Other than celebrating and collecting money from relatives. I've been working on the FRC robot, getting the control system all set up. As well as interfacing the Kinect to the robot through Labview. For all who's new here, FRC (First Robotics Competition) is highly advanced robotics competition for high school students. Currently only has teams in the western countries. TAS (Taipei American School) is the first asian high school in the whole world currently actively participating in the FRC program.

Project Details

Hello everyone! This post we will go in depth of all the projects that I'm working on:

Hello World!

Hey guys, today I'm starting a new blog where I can post all my projects and believe me, there are a lot to come. Currently some overview of the projects that I am working on are:

- Spirit Week
- ROV
- VEX
- FRC

I will later post a more specific overview of each of these projects that I am working on!
