hackproj: September 2012
http://hackproj.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 20, 2012. I try to get out, but they just pull me back in. Since I'm not actively participating this year (wait, I guess this is the first time I mentioned that? I also decided that this project would be a good segue for the next person in charge of the engine and electrical subsystems. Here is the product of about three days of work:. The schematic. Ain't it pretty? I taught my protégé the fine art of mitering everything so that it looks professional. Ignore the crossed wires though.

Two Wheels to the Future: People
http://2w2tf.blogspot.com/p/other-people.html
Two Wheels to the Future. Revolutionizing personal transportation one bike at a time. The two foci of the home built electric vehicle community are the DIY Electric Car Forums. For cars and trucks and Endless Sphere. For smaller vehicles, from motorcycles to skateboards. There are countless build logs on those two forums where people record their progress and experiences building and driving their vehicles, and a smaller number of people write about this on their personal blogs as well.

Shane Colton: Robots
http://scolton.blogspot.com/p/robots.html
Vex 4" Omni Wheel. Pololu TReX Dual Motor Controller. Twitch, Jr. is a switched-mode omni-directional robot I modeled on Team 1565's 2008 FIRST robot, Twitch. I've seen pretty much every robot drivetrain there is, but I was mesmerized by the linkage steering/omni wheel combination. As an experienced robot driver, I could tell that the motions possible with this setup would be spectacularly fun to execute. So, I decided to build a small one for myself, working off what I could see in that video.
