During my studies, I had the opportunity to work on a challenging project involving the design and manufacturing of a single arm manipulator robot. Our team's goal was to create a 4 degree of freedom robot capable of grasping objects like a bottle or a tennis ball. The catch was that we could only use conventional machines, such as lathes, drills, and mills, since a CNC machine was not yet available to us. Throughout the project, we had to consider various factors, including the robot's kinematics, actuation, and control. We also had to develop a reliable and robust mechanical design that would allow the robot to perform its tasks effectively. As part of the assessment, we had to demonstrate the robot's ability to pick up and deliver objects to specific locations. This project challenged me to apply my knowledge of engineering principles and machine design, and I am proud to have been part of a team that successfully completed it.
