MENG 189L: Robotics LLC
Competition
- HazRadBot on F 05/01/2015
- Goal: Develop an electrically-driven mobile manipulator
capable of recovering simulated hazardous materials from
mock disaster site.
- Robot will perform recovery task under combination of
tele-operation and autonomous behavior.
- Move-A-Tube on F 03/27/2015
- Goal: Develop an electrically-driven mobile
manipulator capable of moving tubes from one stand to
another.
- Remote control must be made of parts provided with
kit and/or common electrical components (e.g.,
potentiometers, switches).
- Robot Triathlon (RoboCross, RoboReckoning, RoboGiotto)
on Th 12/04/2014
- Goal: Develop an electrically-driven robot capable of
- RoboCross - (Custom) Tethered remote control through
course of cones spaced a minimum of 16 inches apart;
- RoboReckoning - Autonomously drive straight for specified
distance that ranges from 1 - 8 feet; and
- RoboGiotto - Autonomously drive in circle of specified
radius that ranges from 1 - 4 feet.
- Venue: Atrium of Fidel Center.
- Constraints: $5 maximum on personally-supplied parts;
dimensions of less than 16in wide x 16in long x 20in tall;
and sole power supply is AA battery pack provided.
- Robot Crawl Challenge on Th 10/09/2014
- Goal: Develop a remote-controlled, battery-powered,
electrically-driven chassis capable of traversing obstacles
representative of a hazardous environment.
- Venue: Tiles with obstacles placed outside Cramer Hall.
- Constraints: $5 maximum on personally-supplied parts;
dimensions of less than 16in wide x 16in long x 20in tall;
sole power supply is AA battery pack provided.
