SPARC Auburn's repositories
Lab-Assistant
The purpose of this project is to create a virtual assistant to assist SPARC members using Python. The virtual assistant will be fully featured including abilities to help in the lab to automating a home. It will include a system that allows for easy to use management of lab equipment and various administrative features. The virtual assistant could also be integrated on a mobile robotic platform to allow more capabilities that a static computing platform could. Our current iteration of the virtual assistant is named Karen.
SPARC-Auburn.github.io
In order to help further promote our club, we have created a website that describes who we are, what we do, and how to contact us.
AFRL-Water-Cooler
A joint project of a mechanical senior design team and SPARC for the Air Force Research Lab Challenge in 2015. Created with the purpose of cooling one's internal body temperature. Thermoelectric components cool a water tank attached to an average Camelbak to bring down the temperature of the water being drank.
Lab-Assistant-IO
The purpose of this project is to create a virtual assistant to assist SPARC members using Node.JS. The virtual assistant will be fully featured including abilities to help in the lab to automating a home. It will include a system that allows for easy to use management of lab equipment and various administrative features. The virtual assistant could also be integrated on a mobile robotic platform to allow more capabilities that a static computing platform could. Our current iteration of the virtual assistant is named Karen.
Tesla-Coil
As a demonstration for Auburn's E-Day, we built a full size tesla coil. The intent of this project is to learn concepts about electricity and magnetism and demonstrate them to the community.
MATILDA-Base
This is the repository for any and all documentation for the MATILDA project.
Quadcopter
As one of SPARC's personal projects, we are building a fully customizable quadcopter. The initial design was built using a premade kit. Future plans with the quadcopter are to use it for aerial footage and test semi-autonomous/autonomous control.
SARP-Bot-Software
SPARC Autonomous ROS Platform Robot (SARP). SPARC's IEEE SoutheastCon Hardware Competition 2019 robot has great hardware for numerous robotics application in a small form factor. The practice bot will be revamped to support an electronics upgrade to allow more processor intensive computations.
IEEE-SoutheastCon-2019
A joint project with the Student Projects and Research Committee (SPARC) to design, build, and compete an autonomous robot to collect and sort colored cubes and balls into corresponding colored corners of a small square shaped arena.
SPARC-Photos
All the photos and logos for SPARC are stored here.
3D-Printed-Sumo-Bot
An initial development of a cheap 3D printed sumo robot to serve as a base design for a maker training course.
3D-Printing
This repository is the Student Project and Research Committee's reference to 3D printing on the 3D printers in our lab, Broun 367.
Arduino-Lab-Control-Network
Client and server software for controlling relays using a network of Arduinos
Claw-Machine
As an outreach project for the Southeastern Center of Robotics Education (SCORE), SPARC has been tasked with design and manufacturing a robotic claw machine. The claw machine is intended to be very similar to one that you would find at a mall except it will be designed with the intention that everyone wins.
Git-Practice
This repository is designed for anyone to practice with their skills in git without having to worry about messing up real files.
IEEE-SoutheastCon-2009
2009 IEEE Southeastern Conference Hardware Competition: Completely autonomous (no human control) robots pick up and sort plastic bottles, glass bottles, and aluminum cans.
IEEE-SoutheastCon-2012
2012 IEEE Southeast Conference autonomous robotics competition robot.
NASA-RMC-2015
Auburn University competes in NASA's Robotic Mining Competition. The team which is a part of Space Club and affiliated with SPARC designs, builds, and programs a robot that excavates the simulated basaltic regolith and the ice on a small arena. This was the robot built during the 2014-2015 school year.
NASA-RMC-2016
Auburn University competes in NASA's Robotic Mining Competition. The team which is a part of Space Club and affiliated with SPARC designs, builds, and programs a robot that excavates the simulated basaltic regolith and the ice on a small arena. This was the robot built during the 2015-2016 school year.
Party-Modular-Light-System
A project for making controllable modular lights for the SPARC lab. The lights are small LED strips that magnetically attach to a fabricated wire that spans across the top perimeter of the lab. The LED's are controlled by an H-Bridge driven by an Arduino. The system is contained in a small plastic exposure with four buttons to control the LCD interface to change settings.
SARP-Bot
SPARC Autonomous ROS Platform Robot (SARP-Bot). SPARC's IEEE SoutheastCon Hardware Competition 2019 robot has great hardware for numerous robotics applications in a small form factor. The practice bot will be revamped to support an electronics upgrade to allow more processor intensive computations.
