ABSTRACT

The aim of this project is to design and develop a manual robot and an autonomous robot

for ROBOCON 2019 competition. This report presents the design and mechanism for the

manual and autonomous robots. Our manual robot with self-design wheel will take the
Gerege and pass it to the autonomous robot. The manual robot will then shoot the Shagai

and the autonomous robot will lift up the Gerege. The two robots will reach UUKHAI when
they completed all their required tasks. Our manual and autonomous robots have been

successfully developed. The objectives of our project have also been achieved. The manual
and autonomous robots were able to complete the tasks according to the guide-lines

specified in the ROBOCON competition 2019.

1.0 INTRODUCTION TO ROBOT

A robot is an artificial agent and electromechanical system. A robot has few

properties and it can be used to perform several tasks such as acting as a house cleaner,

helping in military training and many others. The main components of a robot consist of a
motor, battery, micro-controller, circuit boards and other electronic components. There are

many algorithms that are used to control the movements of the robots. The movement of
robots such as throwing the objects, moving forward, backward, upward or downward is

controlled by programmable commands. There are two types of robots which are the
autonomous and manual robots [2].

A manual robot can be considered as a robot that is fully controlled by human. It has

an interface between the robot and the operator. Manual robots can be divided into two main
types which are articulated robot and exoskeletons robot. An articulated robot consists of a

balanced manipulator made up of various joints with a separate actuator for each one. One
