Considerations and
Objectives
•Our main goal during this term is the control of the
Chunxil
•Secondary goals include assembly ease,
modularity, programmability and charging ease.
•Start with small steps, rather than trying to tackle
the whole project at once. Start with 1 Dimension.
•Utilize improvements over the last few years in
microcontrollers and batteries

Requirements
High-level Objectives
•
An small intelligent robot, called a Chunxil, shall be designed to navigate to a
predetermined position within somewhere in a constrained 3-D space, most
likely ocupied by a fluid.
•
As a method of control, only 1-dimensional positioning will be required for
the scope of this project.
•
If One-Dimension is attained, then multiple dimensions will be explored,
given appropriate amount of time.
•
The Chunxil should be designed with nano-technology limits in mind. Extra
hardware should be avoided if possible, considering the possibility of placing
the entire chunxil in a system-on-chip configuration for future generations. The
less things used in the Chunxil, the more feasible it would be to get them to a
very small size at a low production cost.
Size and Shape
a. Tank
•
The Tank size shall remain the same as before, a cube, 6"x6"x6" +- 0.5".
b. Chunxil
•
The Chunxil's weight, height, nor depth shall excede 1" in dimension.
•
The Chunxil shall be a regular shape such that it can nest, or at least sit
plush with another Chunxil.
•
The Chunxil enclosure should be designed for relatively easy replication,
allowing for multiple Chunxils to be built for testing.
Requirements
Motion
•
The first revision of this project shall be designed to limit the Chunxil to 1dimension of motion. Should this task be accomplished, then more
dimensions of freedom will be granted.
•
The values should be able to be programmed statically, meaning that
each Chunxil is pre-programed with a pre-determined numeric set of data
corresponding to a location in the tank.
•
The Chunxil shall be able to move to and maintain a position in within
1/4th of the measured diameter of the Chunxil from any starting position within
the given working dimension.
•
Discrete positions shall be defined within the tank,with corresponding
values that should be programmed in the Chunxil to achieve such positions.
•
In one dimension, tilt of axis (spinning and rotation) is not of concern.
However, in two or more dimensions the angle of the chunxil from any wall of
the tank shall not excede 10 degrees.
Weight
a. Distribution
The center of mass of the Chunxil shall be +- 10% of the measured physical
center.
b. Density
The Chunxil shall be neutrally bouyant, +- 10% of the density of the medium
(liquid) in the tank.
Requirements
Power
•
The minimum battery shall be defined as supplying enough energy for the
Chunxil
•
to make 10 round trip cycles from extreme opposite corners of the tank.
•
The battery shall be rechargeable.
•
The battery must conform to the Chunxil Size and Weight requirements.
•
Recharging time should be under 5 hours.
•
Charging nor tank operation shall excede the wall power, voltage or
current
•
specifications defined by RGE and safety regulations.
Visibility
•
The medium (liquid) in the tank shall be transparent.
•
The sides of the tank shall be at least 80% visible, defined by surface area
of visible
•
portion to non-visible portion.
Requirements
Safety
• All external wires on the tank shall be insulated.
• Electrical components shall be isolated from the liquid medium.
• Coil current should be within reasonable specifications for the given
amount of time that they are powered.
• No component shall excede temperature capable of burning human
skin or starting fire. If such a component can occur, it shall be properly
cooled and shielded.
Modularity and Sustainability
• The Chunxil shall be reprogrammible without replacing any physical
parts.
• The Chunxil should not have to be opened for programming,
recharging the batteries, or connecting to a debugger.
• Each Chunxil shall have a standard, compatible method to program,
recharge, and debug so that the same programming and charging
device can be used for all Chunxils.

Electronics Requirements
• The electronics should not take up more than 50%
of the volume of a 1” cube Chunxil.
(Leaving 50% volume for the coils.)
• Chunxils will be pre-programmed to a specific
route, but must be easily reprogrammed.
• The battery must be rechargeable, & able to
recharge in less than 5 hours.
• A Chunxil shall be recharged, reprogrammed &
debugged without being disassembled.
• All Chunxils must conform to a common interface
standard, such that a universal reprogramming,
recharging, and debugging method can easily be
used for all Chunxils.
• A Chunxil must be able to make 10 round trip
cycles across the diagonal of the tank.
