Robot capable of autonomously get out from under a table and get to the top of the table.Goals:1) use Arduino, 3D print, Laser cut and more to create the robot.2)Show case as much different capabilities as possible.Components and technics used:Programed: Arduino IDE.Body: Cast molded carbon fiber and epoxyBarrel assembly body: 3D printed PLAbarrel assembly: brass tubes and pneumatic fittings.Wheels: laser cut PerspexHarpoon: laser cut PerspexWinch: MG995 continuous servo, Nuts, Bolts and washersFor the Climbing mechanism we used a regulated CO2 12g cartridge activated with a 12v electric solenoid.description:1)The robot would first drive a pre-specified length to achieve shot clearance with 45 degree canon angle for optimal trajectory.2) raise the canon to 45 degree using a servo3)activate the solenoid to release CO2 and launch the harpoons.4)Reeling the winch a few seconds to remove slack from the winch line5)while still reeling move closer to the table edge6)After starting to ascend, tracks start moving simultaneously to winch in order to get more leverage when passing over the corner.
