This was a project created for the Mechatronics Design course. The purpose is to design a robot that can autonomously make its way around a maze and pick up a toy miner. Once picked up it needs to return back to the starting point and there will also be unknown obstacles in the way.

​

My robot completes this by making use of laser cutting and 3D printing for the chassis and brackets and by utilizing an Arduino Due alongside IR sensors to help a navigate the robot. The programming consisted of a PID controller with several different functions defining the behavior of the robot. I specifically worked on the entire mechanical chassis, the manufacturing and assembly, the wiring, and the programming.
