  1. The Go-Go Gantry Jeff Wilson Lee Strobridge Allison Bodis David Carlson Mark Jarrett Jeremy Paradee Jeff Wilson

  2. Problem Statement: • To engineer an automated system that plots text on various sizes of poster board • Input is ASCII file (.txt) 100 bytes max • Must complete in 8 weeks Mark Jarrett, Jeremy Paradee, and Jeff Wilson

  3. Solution: • Movable Vehicle • Computer sends signal to Go-Go Gantry • Go-Go Gantry drives in X direction • Gantry with pen moves in Y direction • Combination of X-Y motion plots text • Vehicle plots text Mark Jarrett, Jeremy Paradee, and Jeff Wilson

  20. User Interface Code: // // entertext.c - a terminal program to enter text and send it to the // Go Go Gantry. A list of options is given to the user, who can enter // text of up to 100 standard ascii letters. #include <stdio.h> int main( void ) { char text[100], choice = 'a'; int numberOfChars = 0, i = 0; // Title screen and prompt for letters printf("****************************************************************\n"); printf("* *\n"); printf("* --- Go Go Gantry: Text Terminal --- *\n"); printf("* *\n"); printf("* Enter up to 100 letters to be printed by the Go Go Gantry *\n"); printf("* Press RETURN to continue *\n"); …….. Dave Carlson

  21. User Interface: Dave Carlson

  22. Design Vs. Prototype: Lee Strobridge

  23. Rover II Platform: Prototype • Pre-Assembled, available • Large front prototyping area • HC 11, Stepper motors, wheels, controllers, serial communication and interrupt drivers • More pins give options for sensors Carlson, Jarrett, Wilson, Bodis, Strobrige, Paradee
