Retrospective: - Build 100% new robot - Seperate batteries and PSU for Pi - Resettable fuses - Stepper or smaller motors - Move slow and accurate - 3 identical robots - Plan and deadlines - Start earlier - Strict change control & test regime - Pi Compute - Explore offload motor control to Arduino (if not stepper) - Better time of flight - More accurate reproduction of challenges - No cheap motor controllers - Pixy is good - PID was good for speedtest - Indexed connectors - Component test framework - Software test framework / robot simulator - Robot every other Tuesday - Evaluate using Python / ROS - Better aesthetics - LEDs, - Better screen - VR / FPV - 360 - Streaming telemetry - Rebuild NERF gun pcb - Compressed air nerf cannon - TH components only - Stay within current limits of components :D - Laser cut chassis - Alu floor pan - Nylon locking nuts - More magnets (screw mountable) - Restart quicker - Watchdog Pi - Solve controller syncing issue - Physical button to navigate menu - Get more sponsors (BT, Broadcom) - Fix down hardware even in prototype (no dangling boards)
