Abstract Scope |
Over the last three years under Robotics for Everyone (R4E) initiative, we have presented multiple design ideas that enable low cost, reconfigurable mobile as well as non-mobile robotic systems. Most of the R4E design was limited to basic experiments in Robot navigation, obstacle avoidance, sensor (proximity, touch, ultrasonic) based environment perception and simple pick and place tasks. In this paper we are presenting a platform that can be used for furthering the learning and experimentation in advanced topics such as vision system and machine learning. The system uses reconfigurable parts combined with 3D printed parts to build an actively steered robot. The system allows usage of cost-effective computational platform such as Raspberry Pi and compatible camera. System can also be expanded to use other advanced computing platforms and sensors such as LIDARs. We discussion 3D printed features to sustain dynamic loads as well as accurately steer the robot. |
