voltage supply to power up. This converter reduces the voltage to be distributed to the

controllers while maintaining the current.
All five motors for this robot are controlled using Arduino UNO and Arduino

MEGA. A master-slave circuit is used to control this robot to ease the programming
declaration and wiring. The motors and limit switches are controlled by UNO while

components like the Gerege motor, Pixy2 Camera, and strobe light are controlled by

MEGA.

4.0 CONCLUSION

The project to develop manual and auto robots for the competition was successfully

executed. This competition is also aimed at generating awareness and interest in robotics
technology as well as creating a platform for various people especially the students to be

involved in a more hands-on and practical aspect in engineering and technology through

robotics.
The electronic, software and mechanism design used in the making of the whole

robot was understood. The objective was achieved and we hope all of the people especially
engineering students can get involved and participate in making the robot.

4.1 Limitation

 The manual robot depends too much on pneumatic component, and the air in the
tank cannot last long.

 The connection between the controller and the robot has a little bit of delay.

4.2 Recommendation

We recommend that this project should be upgraded by adding more sensors so that

the robot can go through the obstacles smoothly. Second, set the angle and use mathematical

calculation to know the right position throwing the Shagai. Third, to make it more efficient
a semi-automatic system can be added to the system in order to avoid human errors.
