MINI ROVER WITH GRIPPER

For my BSc internship project, I have worked on a small, 4 wheel rover, with a mounted arm with a gripper. I have written C code for serial communication and execution of the tele-operated commands for:

  • Operation of the 5 DOF robot arm with a gripping end-effector, in order to perform manipulation tasks.
  • Communication with the rover’s motor and light drivers in order to perform driving and signaling actions.

The code was later extended for WiFi communication and the robot was used for a demonstration at the 2010 Science Festival in Belgrade.
