3.0 ROBOT TESTING

Figure 19 shows how an encoder is used to test the DC geared motor to identify the
angle of the motor. The motor driver is connected to the Arduino.

Figures 20 and 21, on the other hand, illustrate the air testing pressure using the
pressure regulator to ensure the correct pressure is stored in the bottle. Besides that, since a

hole was made on each of the bottle cap to insert the male straight connector (PC4-01), it is
important that the hole was well sealed.

4.0 CONCLUSION, LIMITATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

4.1 Limitations

As the cylinders of pneumatic components are not very large, a pneumatic system

can not drive loads that are too heavy. Compressed air must also be processed prior to filling
in the cylinders to ensure the absence of water vapour or dust. Otherwise, the moving parts
