Navigating the Engineering Disciplines Robot Challenge Competition held class 19 Eight missions, one for each engineering discipline 200 points maximum score Robot must be autonomous (can’t touch outside of base) Must move rubber ducks around on a mat See video from 2011 when a rectangular table was used http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlF7KmOXDrs&list=UUxXbuXM4SzSGx64_LhGBBlw&index=1&feature=plcp Competition is mostly a “navigation” challenge Can build simple attachments – will probably want a pushing attachment like a bulldozer Two minutes per round; each student gets two attempts Grading: Description of operation and program listing (3%) Robot performance (3%) ------- can score double points if all missions solved ------- % 𝑠𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑒=𝑝𝑜𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑠𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝑖𝑛 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑝𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛

Field Setup Three ducks initially in base and three initially on field

you don’t have to follow line for this mission The Missions: Biomedical = 20 points Deliver insulin pump to child: move duck from base to child you don’t have to follow line for this mission

The Missions: Chemical = 20 points Pump chemicals from reactor to base: move duck on field into base

The Missions: Civil = 20 points Install beam on bridge: move duck from base to hexagon region

The Missions: Electrical = 20 points Energize resistor: move duck from base to resistor

The Missions: Mechanical = 20 points Transport car to vehicle test area: move duck from field to base

The Missions: Nanosystems = 20 points Deliver photoresist to equipment: move duck from one spot to another on field

The Missions: Cyber = 70 points Track the cyber attack: follow entire line between first and third stars using photoresistors 40pts 30pts (30 points) Robot must follow the line from the first star to the second star (can’t cut across) (40 points) Robot must follow the line from the second star to the third star (can’t cut across)

The Missions: Industrial = 10 points Strategize and optimize: earn 10 extra points if you achieve any four of the missions

Rules – refer to document on the web 10 point deduction for touching robot outside of base
