-====== Armadillo Scout Projects ====== 
-[[projects:done_armadillo|Finished Armadillo Assignments]] 
- 
-===== Using the Armadillo Scout as a scarecrow ===== 
- 
-Detect birds on a field. Scare them away without harming the birds or the crops. 
-===== Mechanical ===== 
-==== Movement of entire house for weight displacement ==== 
-Adding an implement and balancing of weight 
- 
-==== Beltmodule redesign ==== 
-We need a new design in order for the module to live up to our expectations. 
- 
-The official description is in this googledocs document [[https://docs.google.com/document/d/15SUUbbJXgN6iYc-X1sOzwHNXymfVn5B7BtMgI5sI8pY/edit]] 
- 
-1 slide short presentation of the project:\\ 
-[[https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1-wKnQeWtGUCR7ve3ykrSo6PZMFH5SHc6yH-UTAcvjsA/edit]] 
- 
- 
- 
-===== Mechanical/Electrical projects ===== 
-==== Dynamic change of height  ==== 
- 
-==== Dynamic change of width ==== 
- 
- 
-==== Tilting of the beltmodules ==== 
-tilt the beltmodules and put a castor wheel on the ground 
- 
-===== Update RHD for the new hardware ===== 
-The RHD in MobotWare needs to be updated so it can control the hardware on Armadillo 2. 
-==== Sensors ==== 
-  * Gyro/IMU 
-  * Tiltmeter 
-  * GNSS 
-  * Sick LSM111 
-  * Stereo camera 
-  * Encoders 
-==== Actuators ==== 
-  * Motorcontrollers - is almost done 
- 
-===== Selector button like on the Hako for mode control ===== 
-  - Remote - Bypass computer and go directly to the motorcontrollers 
-  - WiiMote - (Using FroboMind)The software should start automatically based on the selected mode 
-  - Automatic - The software should start automatically based on the selected mode 
-    - MobotWare 
-    - Frobomind 
-===== Upgrade the Safety System for the Armadillo-Scout ===== 
-The Safety System need to be designed and implemented. It should follow the solution made for the Hako, so it is compliant with ISO 13849 - Machine Safety. 
-It includes the following assignments: 
-  * Bumper like on the hako or something similar. 
-  * Redundant wirering for all e-stop buttons 
-  * Integrate the motorcontroller in the system, so the power is not just cut off and used a a motor/motorcontroller reset. See documentaton for [[robots:armadillo:hardware:motors|motor controllers]] on how to corretly implement the MC in the Safety System. 
-===== Install Remote to connect directly to the motor controller ===== 
-It is possible to cennect a RC controller directly to the motor controller. This mean it can be controlled with ot the computer and software. 
- 
-Look for safety remote for this! 
- 
-===== Control Panel ===== 
-Create a HW control panal with on/off switches for different components -> one switch for each 12/24 VDC connector. 
- 
-Two potensionmeters to change the output voltage on the powersupplys. voltmeter to show the voltage.
