One more for good measure

Takes yo to a page to that has a form that helps you select the proper belts and pulleys. They call it DesignFlexWeb

A very good supply of belts, sprockets, tensioners, chains, etc.

This is the start page for building out a complete control system. It has a guided method where you select a controller then modules to plug into the controller then software. We probably will not use the tool for our project but can use it to find documentation and identify which modules we may want to use. It looks like it literally has ever module they make. Very cool.

Introduction to LabView. This is a series of videos and documents to learn how to use labview.

Link to the 2013 controller PDF. This has everything about the control system. 179 pages of good stuff. Hardware, Software, Wiring, Cameras, LabView and more.

Search result showing all the references to the different documents available at NI for the controller in our test robot.

Series of videos showing how to program the robot using the labview programming language.

Good materials for training on the use of the labview program language.

Operating Instructions and Specification for the cROI-FRC II PDF Document. This PDF shows the basic information for the robot controller.

This page has links to engineering PDF documents. If you need to get engineering design specs for a belt this would be a good place to start.

Forum provided by NI to answer all sorts of questions about product that are used in the First(FRC) challenge.

This vendor has lots of parts that we can use for our project. They are not part of the First(FRC) but do have the kind of things that we are going to need.

Series of YouTube videos created by other students on how to use Autodesk Inventor for creating robot parts.

Autodesk is a big supporter lf first(FRC). They are a diamond member. ie 200k to 500k per year. They offer free CAD design software for the students. Be sure to watch the main video. It shows one of the guys from MythBusters showing how CAD works for designing our robot. This page also has links to other important resources. Go to this page and create an account. With this account you will be able to access the Autodesk 360 cloud services. With these services we can share our design and collaborate with other people using tablets, browsers, cell phones, etc.
