What has kept me busy.

Post by Analog-X64 »

You may or may have not noticed that I have been quiet for a while and this is why.

Since the Start of this year Jan 4th... This is what I've been working on at work.

the 2010 Camaro, used in the Transformers movie.

Here is the convertible version.

We have been building the necessary equipment required to build the bottom chassis of this car. So I've been doing everything from electrical wiring, tuning of motors and programming industrial Robotics.

Brutal cars! Cool, you are one of those guys on Discovery in the workshops. Extreme Machines or something like that. With no sleep and no life during insane projects and deadlines. Cool to see what people are doing, except hanging out on R64.com and listening to SIDs.

My Main task is to Program the Industrial Robots that do various tasks building these cars, but usually thats at the later stage of the game. In between, I may help Wire the Controllers(Computers) that control the Robots, I than work with different departments/skill sets like the Mechanical or Engineering or Controls.

You hit the Nail on the Head.... No Sleep, No Life, Long Insane hours and deadlines... and the Only thing that keeps my sanity in check first and foremost is the people on this R64.com best bunch of people I've ever met...well sort of met... well...virtually met... you get the idea, and the enjoyment of all the Retro stuff in regards to SIDS and Remixes that the talented people share here.

Here is a good video showing the different types of applications that I may program Robotics to do.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-J_EzKm_70

Now this is going to sound funny, but the first few seconds of the video when the Robot is lifting a part with suction cups. that is Bad Programming and very Jerky and Robotic. A good program will look Smooth and not jerky.

Here is a closeup of one of the models.
