Hello,
Welcome to the blog post of our Tracking Robot project, which we are continuing to build with my university friend and comrade, @UD.If you are reading this article for the first time, you can learn about the process by reading the previous article with Tracking Robot 

To explain briefly, we will design our UWB sensor-based Tracking Robot, which we prepared as a graduation project at our university, on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform from scratch.In this design process, we will take advantage of every opportunity that the 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides us. We will inform you of our progress at certain intervals.

In this article, where I describe our robot, our baby, I will talk about how our project turned out. The design phases of our robot basically went as we wanted and we followed all the steps correctly. First of all, we created a new dashboard, working on 3DEXPERIENCE, and placed all the necessary applications on this dashboard. Then we drew our technical drawings via Solidworks Connected. We designed our parts from the technical drawings we drew, using Solidworks Connected and xDesign. After the design of our parts was finished, we took our parts out of the 3D printer and put them together. After our body, which will be the base, was completed, we added the necessary electrical accents, namely our engine sensor and motherboard. After our tracking robot was physically completed, we prepared an algorithm on paper. Afterwards, we tried to write this tracking algorithm as a working code and transfer it to our Uwb sensors.

Right at this step, we ran into a big problem. The problem was that our DWM3000-series uwb sensor, on which we built our entire design, did not support our code.

While working on the DWM3000-series usb sensor, because such a design has not been done before in the world. In other words, we did not have enough materials and resources, so we made our algorithm for the previous model, the DWM1000-series sensor. Because we had little resources about the DWM1000-series. Also, according to our Research and the help we received, the perceptron we made for the DWM1000 should have worked for the DWM3000 as well. Actually, we wanted to use DWM1000 instead of DWM3000 at first, but due to the chip crisis we were forced to use DWM3000. No matter how hard we tried for a long time, we were not able to create an algorithm for the DWM3000 series that worked the way we wanted. We managed to communicate between them some time before our delivery date, but then we had to end our project in this way because our power board burned out.

As a result, we had the opportunity to use the 3DEXPEREINCE Platform in many different ways. We had the opportunity to get acquainted with the engine and sensors both as an account and practically.
We put all the pieces together, but even though we were successful for a while, we couldn't complete our project as we wanted, as we were trying to achieve something that doesn't exist on earth right now.

We had a lot of fun doing it and learned a lot. Thank you to everyone who has followed and read the process so far.
