Golem Krang ( Patent Pending )








Spring 2010



Summer 2009

  • Golem Krang Tasks - For all folks who are working on Krang this summer: tasks, plans and contact info.
  • Class Photos - Here are some great photos from Pushkar on finals day!



Preparation

  • Conceptual Design - Illustrates the initial concepts for Golem 1 with drawings and rough CAD models.
  • Chassis Designs - This page is for images and descriptions of structural designs for the primary links of the robot.
  • G1 Numbers - A summary of numbers that will be useful in creating CAD models and choosing components.

CAD Modeling and Purchasing

  • Chassis CAD Models - This page contains precise CAD models for candidate designs of the upper and lower chassis.
  • Parts Catalog - Contains CAD models of components that might be used for the purposes of helping with the generation of accurate Chassis Models.
  • Component Selection - Links and info for parts including motors, sensors, wheels and anything that we are considering purchasing.
  • Summer Components - Links to components to be purchased over summer.
  • Shopping List - Small parts needed for the construction of the robot.

Physics Modeling & Simulation

  • Dynamics Calculations - Derivations of models for Golem 1. Illustrated explanations of the dynamics of our system.
  • Matlab Simulations - Matlab scripts that model and control Golem 1. Links to actual scripts, descriptions of controllers and results.
  • PhysX Simulations - Initial experiments in PhysX that model the robot and apply controllers. Gives results of these experiments.
  • R-Station Simulations - We have chosen the SNU R-Station to be the primary simulator (in addition to Matlab). This page will have results achieved for both segway-style balance and full body simulation.
  • GolemKrang in ACTION - GolemKrang moving in real life!!!

Construction

  • Lower Chassis Construction - The latest information on the construction of the lower chassis. What components were purchased, which tools were used, what are the bolt-sizes and specs etc. Pictures always welcome!
  • Upper Chassis Construction - The latest information on the construction of the upper chassis.
  • G1 Computing - Topics related to the computers of Golem 1.
  • G1 Sensors - The latest information and progress on putting various sensors on the robot.
