<h1>Video Notebook with Timeline</h1>
 +
We kept a video notebook to track the progress of the project. At every major milestone, we made a video which records the date as well as a demonstration of the robot model.
 +
Prior to this successful version, we implemented two other robotic models, which failed.  We learned from the mistakes each time, and used the information learned to build a better robotic model. Here’s a brief comparison of the 3 models of BioBrick-A-Bot that was implemented, since Summer 2009.

Video Notebook with Timeline

We kept a video notebook to track the progress of the project. At every major milestone, we made a video which records the date as well as a demonstration of the robot model. Prior to this successful version, we implemented two other robotic models, which failed. We learned from the mistakes each time, and used the information learned to build a better robotic model. Here’s a brief comparison of the 3 models of BioBrick-A-Bot that was implemented, since Summer 2009.

Comparison of 3 Models of BioBrick-A-Bot

BioBrick-A-Bot Model A

  • Date Implemented – 7/8 to 8/6
  • Coordinate System – 2 D Polar Coordinates
  • Status - Obsolete
  • Pipette Head Assembly - Stationary
  • Plate Assembly - Movable
  • Major Components
    • Mobile Platform (2 motors)
    • Pipette Holder (3 motors)
  • Video

BioBrick-A-Bot Model B

  • Date Implemented – 8/6 to 8/26
  • Coordinate System – 3D Cartesian Coordinates
  • Status - Obsolete
  • Pipette Head Assembly - Movable
  • Plate Assembly - Stationary
  • Major Components
    • Movement Assembly (3 motors)
    • Pipette Assembly (2 motors)
  • Video:

BioBrick-A-Bot Model C

  • Date Implemented – 8/27 to now
  • Coordinate System – 3D Polar Coordinates
  • Status - In Use
  • Pipette Head Assembly - Movable
  • Plate Assembly - Stationary
  • Major Components
    • BETA Frame
    • ALPHA Module (3 motors)
    • PHI Module (3 motors)
