Robot update.

Posted on 06:11 by Flyku


recently i have been working on a robot for a school project. The pictures you see here are the culmination of several months of work. All the pieces are made out of acrylic and cut using a laser cutter. The robot was designed to be sold as a kit and can be assembled simply by bolting it together. It uses 2 continuous rotation servos for propulsion and could be controlled using whatever micro controller you like, here I'm using an Arduino mega.

The robot is designed to be expandable, I am in the process of designing extra parts that can be connected to the robot to get it to perform different functions, light following and line sensing for example. There is also space for the user to
experiment with their ideas. I was required as a part of my course to consider production costs and strategies however
extra design work would be needed to start production.
