Today we totally redesigned our whipped cream dispenser. The vertical design was somewhat unpractical and extremely difficult to build. The new design has the whipped cream can on a horizontal plane. One downside to this is that the whipped cream does not flow out as easily, but overall it is an easier build and a more practical and efficient design. Currently the build is complete except for the mechanism that will pull on the lever to dispense the whipped cream. We are coming very close, and I believe we will have the build finished completely by next class, and then we can start working on the actual program. The conveyor team has a standard template for each group, so this will be very easy. We should only have to add a few motor blocks and the whipped cream dispenser will be complete.
