1. Describe the purpose or goal of your robot. Answer the question, “Why does this robot exist?” What problem does it solve? What are some of the challenges to solving that problem? 2. Describe how your robot will solve the problem. What sensors will it use? How will it behave based on the inputs and how will it overcome the challenges presented? 3. How will you know if your robot successfully meets its goals? What tests will you run? What measurements will you take to know that it is working as expected? 4. As much detail as you can about any special equipment used in your robot.
A robot is a programmable machine that can carry out a series of automated tasks. The final lab for the semester is
to build a robot of your own design. Your robot should contain at least two sensors, and two output
work together to perform a task. Sensors can be something like a temperature or light sensor. Output mechanisms
can be things like servo motors or lights. In order to make sure that the task your robot performs is sufficiently
complex to meet the objectives of the course you will need to write a proposal that answers the questions below.
1. Describe the purpose or goal of your robot. Answer the question, “Why does this robot exist?” What
problem does it solve? What are some of the challenges to solving that problem?
2. Describe how your robot will solve the problem. What sensors will it use? How will it behave based on the
inputs and how will it overcome the challenges presented?
3. How will you know if your robot successfully meets its goals? What tests will you run? What measurements
will you take to know that it is working as expected?
4. As much detail as you can about any special equipment used in your robot.
