Mechatronics

Baloon Targetting Autonomous Robot:
During the fall semester of my first senior year, in my Mechatronics course in which my team and I were tasked with designing, manufacturing, and assembling a robot demonstrating interfacing hardware and software components to identify, target, and launch projectiles at an opposing bots' balloon (mounted on top of the chassis).
Our bot can be seen pictured on the left side of the arena.
Assembly:
My contributions to this project included initial designs, manufacturing and assembly, prototyping, and final assembly and integration. This included laser-cutting yuka board for our frame support, laser-cutting acrylic for flat components, 3D printing and troubleshooting, wire management/ soldering, and bolting/ tensioning during assembly. I did not help much with the code on this one.
Results:
Our tank-bot won several of the matches it participated in, but ultimately was eliminated in the semi-finals.
