ability while continue to increase the speed so that not only all tasks are completed, the total
completion time can also be shorten.
For its usefulness to the society, we find that through the four-legged design, our
robot is capable of passing through different terrains. As implied through the theme, the
MR2 is tasked to carry the messenger through complex terrain so that the message can be
transferred to another party. Our robots, with such design, can be used in rescuing mission
where life-saving resources and tools can be sent to victims without danger.
5.0 CONCLUSION
The MR2 is a four-legged walking robot built with the ability of walking in straight
line or turning into different directions with controlled angle of rotation. The approximate
dimension of the robot is 800 mm × 700 mm × 600 mm. Main material used for the
production of the MR2 is aluminum, but other materials like acrylic board, yoga mat, 3D
printed material are also used. The MR2 is a robot whose legs are powered by Power
Window motor with help of photoelectric sensor for the purpose of synchronization. In
short, the MR2 is a robot that has to complete multiple tasks. The MR2 has to pass through
the Sand Dune and Tussock to go straight to Mountain Urtuu. After the MR1 thrown the
Shagai and earn 50 or more points, the MR2 is allows to climb the Mountain and raises the
Gerege (Uukhai).
ROBOCON is a perfect platform to learn and enhance robotic skills and knowledge.
Team-work is important in order to ensure the robot runs perfectly. Applying idea and
materializing design for a robot based on the rules are important to make competitive robots.
In addition, this project has taught us the importance of team-work and professionalism.
6.0 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Throughout the process of making the robots, we had obtained the help and followed
the guideline of some knowledgable people who deserve our greatest gratitude. The
completion of this project gives us much pleasure and enriches our experience. We would
like to show our, first and foremost, gratitude to Universiti Sains Malaysia for the financial
support. We would also like to extend our thanks to all those who have directly and
indirectly guided us throughout this journey.
