Robot Summer 2020

SUMMARY

Robot summer: Engineering Physics introduction to instrumental design.
We were tasked with building a robot capable of collecting cans scattered randomly around a fixed area. Summer 2020 being in the middle of quarantine, we had little access to professors and even less access to tools. Regardless of circumstance, it was an incredible introduction into the world of robotics, learning about control theory, actuators, and various sensors over 3 months
