8th week :
Coding
That week, we tried to make them turn one after the other but with a delay between each turn. We had an issue with the fonction "delay" which didn't work alone. Finally, we put it in a condition "if" and suddenly it worked.
Box
Today we did a plan for our box on a website in order to cut the sides in a medium board. Actually, at the beginning we wanted to print it entirely with the 3D printer. However, because of an issue with the time and the others classmates who also needed the printer, we came with this decision to make it on ourselves with our little hands. So we measured and estimated some measures for the box. Then we put those measures on the website.
After having upload the plan we had on the website, we had to open it on Adobe Illustrator CS6 then register the plan as a ".ai " file. After that, we opened it on a CoreIDRAW Essentials X6 and added some holes to the original plan (on the right side of the box) : a big hole to let the user touch the wheels , an other hole for the micro-usb cable to fit into the port on the Arduino. We also dit another hole with a drill above the last one (it is not on the plan) for the alimentation cable.
Look how the result is precise there !
P.S : You can already find the plan on our Hackaday files !!
