Project 15
TITLE: GMRIT Shakle race rover champion
DESCRIPTION:
I have done this project on request of one of faculties in order to represent my college. One of my juniors have presented this project in a competition called SHACKLE RACE ROVER at STEPCONE'13 in GMRIT and my bot stood first. My bot completed the task in 45 seconds.
INTRODUCTION:
The main theme of the RACE is to build a completely autonomous robot which is capable of solving an arena which consists of various aspects like line following, obstacle detection, climbing a ramp, moving across terrain filled with stones, and also following a track.
MISSION:
The rover (Autonomous robot) has to accomplish the following mission:
The arena will be in the shape of 5 alphabets ‘GMRIT’. The actual alphabet arrangement and shape will be shown clearly in the arena description which is a 3D view of the arena.
1) The rover has to first enter the alphabet ‘G’ from the point described as ‘ENTER’ placed on the arena.
2) A black line is laid inside the alphabet ‘G’ which is having white background over the entire area.
3) At the end of the alphabet ‘G’ there will be an interconnected ramp way in the shape of alphabet ‘M’ over which the rover has to climb.
4) The alphabet ‘M’ is again connected to next alphabet ‘R’ which is having walls of certain height. Inside the alphabet ‘R’ there will be two autonomous gates(the closing and opening of gates is described in the game procedure) and the rover has to perform obstacle detection.
5) The alphabet ‘R’ is again connected to alphabet ‘I’ which is having some randomly arranged pebbles or stones. At the end of the alphabet ‘I’ there will be again a black line which is of short length and extended to the beginning of the alphabet ‘T’.
6) The alphabet ‘T’ will be having a track over which rover has to move to the ‘EXIT’ point placed on the arena.
RESULTS:
Since I have completed my B.tech, am not supposed to take part in STEPCONE'13. So, I have assisted my juniors to represent my college.I am winner of project expo at STEPCONE'11 my experience had helped them a lot. Even though I din't get a chance to take part in this event, Am happy for one thing that am the one behind the success of this bot. This bot stood as the champion by completing the task in an average time of 45 sec for a lap.
