Develop a multifunctional robot with voice command recognition, vacuuming capabilities, and a robotic arm for picking up small objects. The project involves designing a sturdy frame, efficient navigation system, and a versatile robotic arm. The robot must be able to avoid obstacles, lift objects, and travel to specific positions.

Introduction • Assistant Robots can perform many tasks • Voice command • Vacuuming • Building car • Delivery Packages • Save time and money Voice Command Robot Vacuum Robot Voice Assistant
Scope of Project • Design a frame and body for the robot • Navigation system of traversing at least a single floor and avoid any obstacles or people that may walk into its path • Design a robotic arm that be able to do simple tasks such as pick up small objects and place them into a bucket on the frame
Current Desired Functions • Pick up small objects • Quick attach system for easy modification • Specific location travelling Picking up trash
Requirements • Frame with tacks • Extendable body • Scan with multiple sensors • Recalculate path around moving and immobile objects • Recalculate path around non moving objects • Travel to a specific position • 2-3 joint robot arm
Evaluation • Max frame load of at least 20 lb • Robot arm can push/pull at least 8 lb • Robot arm can lift at least 2 lb • How many floors can the robot travel • Simple text/voice recognition
Task Organization • Dustin will be working on the tracks and the body of the robot • Yutong will be developing the navigation system • David will be designing a robot arm to do simple tasks • As a group we will work on supporting each other when someone has something unclear
Chassis • Size = 16.5” X 10.5” X 3.1” • Tension sprocket travel = 1.5”
Motor • Minimum Torque for motor =8.6 kg-cm • HSR-2645CRH • T=12 Kg-cm • V= 69 ft/m • Cost = $74.78 for both servos • 98 RPM Econ Gear Motor • T=37.8 • V= 69 ft/m • Cost = $33.00 for both motors
Body • Guide Post = 13” • Bucket size = 14” X 11.4”
Navigation • Initially can avoid or make left/right turn when there are some obstacles in the front or at both side. • Will build up a local map for travelling to a specific position. • Will add simple text/voice recognition.
Circuits • Connected with 2 continuous servo motors, 4 ultrasonic sensors, Arduino Uno, breadboard, jumper wires. • Each sensor for each direction. • Use two motors as wheels.
Robot arm • 3 degrees of freedom • Arm extension using linear actuator • Lifts objects 10 lbs or less Heavy-Load Robot Arm
Deliverables Frame • Tracks that can carry at least 20 lbs. • Base raises up to an additional foot. • Quick-attach modular system • SolidWorks proficiency
Navigation • Avoid hitting objects when moving • Navigate to any specific location • Programing experience
Robot Arm • Pick up and set down small object at desired location • Open doors
Learning Outcomes • We intend to expand our knowledge of SolidWorks • We will learn to utilize programing for navigation • Learn the basic concepts of designing robotic arm and frame • Working as a team and meeting deadlines • Design multiple systems separately and integrating them together
Marketing • Cost: $600-700 • Save time • All-in-one purpose robot • Easy to modify for individual needs • Easy to maintain • Offices and schools • Assist people in daily activities • Amazon • Market as an alexa product
