On February 10th, the legs and body were secured together as well as the coding and functioning of the stepper motor. The body had 1 screw securing the leg on one side while having 2 screws on the other in order for the rocker bogey suspension to still be functional while also keeping the body secure. The programming and testing of the stepper motor was successful in rotating both clockwise and counter clockwise with a customizable angle of rotation. This stepper motor’s main function would be the winding and unwinding of the cloth for the collection system. The upcoming tasks include programming and attaching the motors, securing the wheels to the body and also adding a protective plastic housing to the base in order to protect the electrical components when attached.
