Overview

Created a Rapid Assembly Design (RAD) project for a semester-long design project (SLDP) for EG-1003 Intro to Engineering Course as a team of 3. The mechanical, electrical, and programming of the code was completed to work as the project design and presented as a final project.

Why ATR?

  • ●Reduces time spent manually measuring out areas
  • ●Reduces manual labor costs
  • ●All available space the robot can move in is charted as possible
