DELIVERABLES
+ A robot that can drive up a ramp with remote controls
+ A robot that communicates with another robot collaboratively push a tube up the ramp
OVERVIEW
The goal of this project was to design a remote controlled robot that could traverse a ramp and collaboratively push a tube up it with another robot.
DESIGN & BUILD
We began with coming up with a general design idea and then built it using a lightweight chassis constructed of makerbeams, a raspberry pi controller, and 3D printed wheels lined with rubber bands for traction. We used a gear belt system and a DC gearmotor to drive the back wheels.
