Cube-Collecting Robot

Overview:
The objective of the project is to design and build an 8’’X 8’’ robot that moves cubes around a color-coded arena while opposing a classmate’s robot. This project was a part of a Mechatronics course at Cornell University (MAE 3780).
Process:
Goal: collect more cubes on our side of the board than the opponent's after the 1 minute period.
Game Strategy:

-
A "push" approach once on the middle of the board --> design "wings".
-
Color sensor used to detect position on board.
