v7 v8 5 5 [[Image(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/40/Peanuts_gang.png,20%,right,margin=20)]] 6 6 The team purchased a [https://www.andymark.com/peanut-chassis-robot-drive-system-p/am-3417.htm peanut chassis] and need to design a robot around it that should include the drive base (the purchased kit), a control system, camera(s), sensors, and a mechanism to make it do something useful. 7 8 This project involves design and construction of a [http://www.andymark.com/peanut-chassis-robot-drive-system-p/am-3417.htm peanut robot]: a small robot with four wheels, two motors, and an aluminum drive frame that is box-shaped to contain all the internal parts of the robot. Currently, our team has two assembled peanut robots and two that are not assembled. 9 10 The peanut robots serve several purposes including providing a training and code-testing platform for control systems and a mobile platform for testing mechanisms. Building these bots will give all participants a rough idea of what building a robot is really like, from the design to assembly to control and schedule to get it all working. These peanut bots should include or accommodate a mechanism, cameras, sensors, etc. to give the team the experience of building a real game robot. This project may involve a mix of beginner and experienced students.
