Problem Statements
Intro
This is a running list of Test-Driven Design, rapid prototyping, and larger prototyping tasks required for the completion of the GVCS. English Translation: This is a list of important tasks that need to be done to deliver the promise of a life-size LEGO set of powerful production tools and machines.
List
- Power Cube Scalability - quick connects for structural mounting of one Power Cube upon another. For this, it may be useful to use the Bobcat Quick Attach between cubes - but the Bobcat Standard Quick Attach strength specification may not allow 10,000 lb or more types of forces required of stiff attachment of power cubes to one another if they are used as structural attachments to further modules - such as another implement mounted on the Power Cube. There needs to be a solution for a heavier duty quick attach which can be used as structural mounting that constitutes heavy equipment frames.
- Backhoe pivot - http://opensourceecology.dozuki.com/c/Pivot - the backhoe pivot is complicated - and we believe it could be simpler - such as returning to the chain version of turning. See Backhoe Pivot with Chain.
