**The current robotic platform can be modified into a crude robot capable of rotating, but will require a number of experiments and calculations to be usable in a demo, will be highly limited by the microphone cabling, and will likely be prone to error. Thus, it was decided to use our current platform as a proof of concept and to use the new platform to implement what we learn.

  • Team Members: Zach, Rafael
  • PhD Supervisor: Phani
  • Faculty Supervisor: Arye Nehorai
  • Goal:
    • Complete and test the simulations when a new dimension of 'rotation' is introduced in the current system.
    • Check the hardware requirements to build and test the new system.
    • Learn how the current control algorithm works and how it can be modified when the robots can rotate.
    • Implement the new control algorithm in Matlab and integrate it with the hardware.
    • Make a plan about how the robot position can be tracked using IR sensors and how the system should be modified to make it 3D.
