Mechanical design and mounting of sensors on a tracked robot
Avideh Zakhor, Professor
Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
Applications for Fall 2024 are closed for this project.
In this project, we will design mounts for a number of sensors to be added to a tracked robot. The design will be followed by fabrication and actual mounting. The sensors include a depth camera that does up and down and also traverses along the width and height of the camera as well as a visual odometry sensor. Must have experience with designing servos, and motors to make the sensors move.
Role: * Use software tools such as fusion 360 or Solidworks to design mounts
* Use fabrication tools such as 3D printing to print the parts.
* Attach the sensors and their mounts to the robot.
Qualifications: Highly desirable:
* prior experience with designing moving parts, motors etc
* prior experience with 3D design and fabrication;
* prior experience with basic electronics
* prior experience with robots
Hours: 12 or more hours
