Minor missalignment fixing and major reinforcement

Finished adding reinforcement and added teeth/ridges and increasing the surface area of its toe so it grasp the ground better ^^

Colouring!

Cried my self to sleep last night to relieve my stress!
I’m fine now lol

I’ve tested the colour my manufacturer can print (like I said on my last devlog) and added some reinforcement to the side and the top body part because I can only make it 3mm height

Brute fixing V5

I know what’s wrong but I have school stuff in due soon, I’m stressed out, just got back from school trip, I’m going insane, I can’t do this anymore, I wanna give up school altogether, I have remedials to do, assignment to complete, exams next week, I wanna throw up

So I’m brute fixing this version after assessing the printed V4 (It’s done and can be tested, only some minor bugs, also ignore the colors, I’m testing it)

Made a Circuit Plan

• First picture is the one I’ve worked out on
• Second pic is the whole circuit plan
• Third pic is the simplified servo/leg circuit

Added DHT22 Temperature and Humidity Reading

Well, this lines is unable to plot the data to the website hust yet, as I’m just trialing if its actually readable as a bare code with no pretty-ness

Updating Shadow’s Model

So an alternative popped in my head when I was praying for its half a leg mode lol

Since folding its calf to its tigh won’t work proportionally as it require the calf to be shorter than the thigh, then I made it close up just like my initial idea but its not 100% folded inside

I can see the vision where it’ll be more stable when idle such as in its monitoring/sleeping mode because its wider, and have a larger feet surface area touching the ground

But to test this out, means I have to make sure a single leg is functional, so this mode will be tested in some later time

In the meantime, I’ll order a print of a single leg to test it directly

First time using arduino IDE with hackatime

This is my first time using Arduino IDE with hackatime and I’m just seeing if its work, also because its my praying time rn lol, also, I relocate files in this timelapse because when I first join stardance, I thought it doesn’t support arduino IDE time track in ubuntu

And turns out, hackatime does have an extension for arduino ide in ubuntu, so now I’m relocating the file into ide that had been relocated from ide to vscode

I preffer to use arduino ide as I find vscode’s AI being too helpful cus everytime I type, the AI reccomend me lines of codes and I find it hard to sharpen my coding or debugging

No hate to vscode users but I just find arduino ide is less helping me and what doesn’t kill you make you stronger right?

Shadow’s design process before I join stardance!

I included spider’s background research and what drive me into making this project :D

Finishing Shadow’s model

During simulation (the CAD version), all parts work as intended, and the measurements is right, ill order a 3d print of this model (only one of its leg cus its cheaper) and test it with real servo :D

Parts used

• Body V3.4
• Upper body V1.4
• Thigh V1.3
• Calf V2.1
• Hex V1.2

Shadow Hunter report

you can see the update on this link and comment any suggestion!

Also, I’m working on a separate docs as the Indonesian version is for an ongoing competition (it is stated that all rights to my work is still mine), and because I don’t want to disturb the competition version with the English one, I separate the docs.

Here I attached the proof of working on my Indonesian docs and my translated docs that you can read and comment on!

Translating Shadow’s report

basically, its a detailed explanation of my project (Shadow Hunter)

Here’s the list of detailed explanation (still on going)

• Background
• Initial idea
• Purpose and its benefit
• Limitations
• Target audience
• Part & tools that I use
• Implemented concept
• Designing and prototyping
• Testing
• Documentation

It is not fully finished as I prewrite some of this in my own langguage and then translate it to English and also I still need to add some stuff

Tried to fix the missalignment but it won’t go away, but atleast now i know where’s the error

First devlog!

Since this is my first devlog, i’ll give an update of what this project is, because I’ve started this project a month before stardance, basically, this is for an IoT competition and I wanted to get feedback and share my work with everyone as this is my bigest project yet

Initial idea:

xX_Shadow_Hunter_Xx or Shadow Hunter is an internet of things (IoT) based data gathering device that is designed to gather environmental data wirelessly in post disastrous areas that are dangerous to approach and have limited energy supply. This project is based on climate disaster mitigation technology, aimed towards post-earthquake disaster.

First devlog:

Fixing the shoulder part for my spider robot, idk if this is final as there are some errors that I’m not sure if it fixed or not lol
