I Built a Military Robot

Engineering Juice
in Process
45 6 Intermediate
Mobile, military robot optimized for use in desert environments which can be controlled remotely or autonomously and can collect/ stream video to a VR headset via its front mounted camera. The method of movement is a continuous track, created using steel roller chain connected by fasteners with 3D printed links. These loops sit on a custom designed drive sprocket and idler sprocket with 4 shock absorber loaded roller pins that act as the suspension system. The drive motors are powered by '18650' batteries, directed by a raspberry pi 4 and connected to a motor controller. For connectivity, a mobile device can connect to the pi's external antenna as it is a WiFi access point. From here, directions can be sent to the robot from the mobile device using the Node Red GUI and additionally, the entirety of the main raspberry pi computer can be accessed for the use of sending custom commands for autonomous movement.

Succeeding with open-source-software in product development

Aleksander Sadowski
in Process
4 0 Intermediate
Because developing and building machines is a mistery for many engineers in the european union, our author has created this guide for mechanical engineering start-ups. It demonstrates, how the product development process for machines can be efficiently implemented using freely available software. The process described in this tutorial is based on established standards from the industry. This guide is based on VDI 2221 'Development of technical products and systems - Model of product development' and follows the steps of the product development process, from the machine's requirements to the signed declaration of conformity. This guide is an english translation of the German article "Leitfaden - Wie der Produktentstehungsprozess mit Open-Source-Software gelingt" from the engineering trade magazine "konstruktionspraxis"
