4.0 CONCLUSION, LIMITATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

4.1 Conclusion

ROBOCON provides opportunity for the robotic enthusiast to enrich their technical

skills and knowledge. Our aim for the competition was to develop an electronic and

electrical system, circuitry and programming using Arduino board for the manual and the
autonomous robots. We also aimed to design and develop a mechanical structure of the

manual robot and the autonomous robots for ROBOCON 2019 competition.
Communication and team-work are important especially during a competition. Applying the

concepts and materializing the design right from the scratch, boosted the hands-on
experience of the team. Functioning out diverse approaches and analyzing the performance

helped comprehend the actual dynamics and build in-depth understanding.

4.2 Recommendations

1) We recommend to setting up a competition with easier theme using more sophisticated

robots.

2) We also recommend to setting up a competition using robots that are able to move on
both land and sea.

5.0 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
