Coding & Program
This is the language used for coding the robot
What is C++/Python?
This drivetrain is omnidirectional with 4 motors
What is an X-drive?
To make a this gear ratio, the driver gear needs to be smaller than the output gear
What is a torque gear ratio?
A structure system beam used to form the "skeleton" of the robot.
What is a c-channel?
These parts help to assemble the Vex robot and makes the parts securely fit?
What is HEX NUT Retainers
Your engineering notebook should have the following list at least two things:
·Brainstorming ideas
·Sketches or pictures of prototypes
·Pseudocode and flowcharts for planning
·Any worked calculations or algorithms used
·Answers to guiding questions
·Notes about observations and/or conducted tests
A structure system beam used to form the "skeleton" of the robot.
What is a chassis?
These gears do not change the gear ratio
What are idler gears?
A long, rigid piece through the rotational center of an object (like a gear or wheel). Square bars are usually used as axles in the VEX system.
What is an axle?
What are the parts that mechanism and wheels moving smoothly?
What are Bearings
What is the other method of coding?
What is Block coding.
This form of wheels can be used to make the base omnidirectional.
What are omni wheels?
This is an issue that may occur when using sprockets
Hint:Chain
What is the chain breaking?
The part of the robot that makes the robot operate?
What is the brain?
What provide a powerful way to move robotic assemblies and they have built-in sensors which measure rotation, rotational speed, current draw, power, temperature, and torque
What is V5 Smart Motors
This is what the controller should be paired with?
What is the Robot brain
This Drivetrain can move forward as well to side to side
What is a H-drive
People use sprockets than large gear trains because of this
What is friction?
A part of the robot that allows the robot to operate with other parts.
What is a V5 Robot radio sensor?
What color motor gives a 36:1 cartridge 100 RPM and increases the torque power?
What is Red Motor
What cable should we use to ensure that the robot is connected?
What is USB Cable
When building a robot, you will build this type of base because it has the most space.
What is a tank drive?
This is the gear ratio between the largest gear and the smallest gear with the smallest gear as the driving gear
What is 7 to 1?
A part of the robot that allow you to achieve higher torque or speed .
What is a Gear?
What color motor gives a 6:1 cartridge 600 RPM and increases the speed?
What is the Blue motor
