Wildstang Robot Building process Road map
- Concept & Design
- Brainstorm and gather initial ideas from wildstang team members.
- Go through process of elimination for "realistic" and "un-realistic" ideas.
- Take all the realistic and practical ideas and create a design for the robot.
- Consider all components that go into the design (mechanical, electrical, software, strategy, and feasibility study)
- Make our designs from Inventor tool and ProE software.
- Prototype
- Build the prototype to familiarize ourselves with a functional model, and to test all of its features prior to building the actual robot.
- Building the Actual Robot and Testing
- At this point, we used what we learned from the prototype and built the actual robot.
- Go through series of testing on the robot.
- Perform different stress test cases on the playing field against other robots at Wildstang invitational.
- Post Production Process
- Now that we have the actual model we perform series of post production process such as testing and analysis. We have test cases from each of the engineering category.
- Shipping the Robot
- We congratulate ourselves and celebrate the completion of the robot and finally get ready for the competition.
