Phase III 2010

    Nothing But the Best Part of the Meeting... Show-and-Tell! So get your Robot Running! Plenty of Challenges:

Challenges




    We'll start with our original HBRC "TABLEBot Challenge."
A TableBot is a robot that survives, lives, and plays on a table (or pays the price).
 
Phase I: Build a robot that goes from one end of the table to the other and back.
Phase II: Have the robot push a block off the edge of the table.
Phase III: Have the robot push the block into a shoe-box mounted at the end of the table.

    Next, another HBRC original... "The FloorBot Challenge."
A FloorBot is a robot too big for the table.
Phase I: Go from one end of the room to the other and back.
Phase II: Find an object in the room.
Phase III: Fetch the object.

    RobotArm Challenge: A robotic arm that may be fixed in location solves movement and grab/release
Phase I: Build a robotic arm that moves or waves.
Phase II: Pick up an object in a known location and move it to another location.
Phase III: Pick up an object from an unknown location and place it in a container or known endpoint location.

    AI Challenge
An AI Bot utilizes advanced verbal and vision sensors.
Phase I:  Have the robot verbally chat. 
Phase II:  Ask the robot to identify an object in the room visually.
Phase III:  Have the robot manipulate the object.

    And finally... Run What Ya Brung!
Show off your special one-of-a-kind homebrewed robot, no matter what it does or doesn't do.

    Total World Domination depends on YOU! So, don't be a spectator, participate!

Thanks!
