22-15-243-22-24sruthimFirst iteration of insertion mechanism needs improvedIterate on current design to improve– Selected new springs
– Increased length of sensor sleeve walls
– Change 3D printing methods (no brim)
Based on the analysis of the failures of the first iterations, these changes should fix the issues.
32-19-242-29-24tdetlefsImage warping in D405 cameraRe-calibrate the cameraThe warping was determined to be too small to matterThe error caused by warping was in the millimeter range and can be mitigated by keeping the cornstalk in the middle of the image.
42-23-243-12-24tdetlefsPerception code not based on newest version of given codeUpdate the current perception code.The perception code was updated based on changes from the previous version.These changes are necessary to integrate with the FSM and manipulation stacks.
52-28-243-14-24sruthimNo access to 3D printers– Use the other printer in the lab
– Print at techspark
– Wait for new material
Order new materialThe other printer in the MRSD lab was not working, and printing at tech spark is too expensive.
63-20-24PendingsruthimMessy cabling on end effectorShorten cablesShorten cables to necessary lengths.The cables are messy because they are too long.
73-20-243-26-24srameshsIncorrect xArm Inverse Kinematics Behavior– Write an IK solver
– Use a different API call
A different API call was used to perform relative movements which workThis resolution works and it is simpler than writing an IK solver.
