Revision as of 13:55, 17 October 2005
The goal of this page is maintaining an updated list of the status of the s-bots in IRIDIA For each s-bot, a short list of hardware/software problems should be given. Every time an error/problem occurs while experimenting with the s-bots, it *must* be recorded here.
Common hardware problems
The following document list common hardware problems and their solutions:
When something happens to the s-bots (French, pdf)
sbot 6
Working
- Tracks
- Rotation
- Camera (bit out of focus)
- IR Proximity and Ground Sensors
Not working
- Traction sensor not working at all
- Gripper. Open close mechanism gets stuck occasionally
- Accelerometer has tendency to jump to +/- 180 degrees. Otherwise working. Fixable by limiting values.
- Camera bit out of focus
Comments
- First generation
