Identifying our hardware needs
Based on our storyboards, I extracted or derived the following hardware tasks:
- Drive the robot base
- Carry the robot arm
- Lift toys
- Put toys in the toy box (arm length)
- Sensors:
- Provide power for all systems:
- 5V for Nvidia Nano
- 5V for Arduino
- Arm power – 7.2V
- Motor power – 7.2V
- Onboard computers:
Now, let’s take a look at the software requirements.
