Build 18 Micro Colony Chassis
During Build 18 I managed to slap together a simply chassis for our micro colony robots. It was super simple, made of some plastic and hot glue, but, it was able to hold everything on it.
Here are some pictures:
As you can see it isn’t very big, not much larger than my cell phone. I used 3 4-40 machine screws which let us slide the sensor board into place and tuck all of the electronics underneath. I really like the 4-40 screws for stacking feature and it is something I would like to retain for the next revision of our chassis.
The next revision will also have a mount for the servos, instead of them just being tacked in place with hot glue. It was a quick and dirty build, but, it got the job done.
