Within the robotics introduction activity of the Asperga association, students were encouraged to develop a long-term project beyond simple obstacle-avoiding or light-following robots. So they decided to create a remotely controlled robot capable of collecting data and samples in shallow waters. This is just the structure supporting the motors and chain drive. The M5 metric is used to connect the right side to the left, and M3 is used for tensioning each side's track. Here's an link to the chain drive used: https://es.aliexpress.com/store/product/TT-Motor-Smart-Car-Robot-Gear-Motor-for-Arduino-Free-Shipping/1805090_32529098435.html?spm=a219c.12010108.1000016.1.nk9LOS&isOrigTitle=true In saltwater environments, a subsequent maintenance was required. Here's an link to the motors used, which proved insufficient for areas with algae and provided little propulsion in water. An additional motor with a propeller outside the hull will be added for control and assistance where needed: https://es.aliexpress.com/item/plastic-Caterpillar-Chain-Track-Pedrail-Thread-tracker-Wheel-for-Tank-Crawler-Chassis-DIY-RC-Toy-remote/2050350319.html?spm=a219c.10010108.1000016.1.XeSWQ6&isOrigTitle=true Floatation is provided by a gum ball box. Pieces 00, 01, and 06 are printed twice to create the robot's right side panel. Initial field tests have shown stability issues between the gear wheel and motor shaft. The gum ball box should be placed higher to prevent it from hindering progress over rocks and soft sand.
