About the project
How?
Used Arduino Nano to wire, code, and develop different attack algorithms for a robot under strict constraints.
Used fusion 360 to design the 3D printed enclosure for the bot. Optimized the bot to be as close as possible to the desired specifications such as weight (496/500g) and size (99.8/100mm).
This maximizes the effectiveness of our pushing power, tire grip, and resistance to other bots. Ensured all the weight was close to the wheels and front for better tire grip.
Results.
Achieved second place out of 20 competitors.
Expanded my skill set in Arduino IDE, electrical wiring, how ultrasonic and IR sensors work, as well as designing CAD models with strict restrictions.
