NextPrevious The Contest The goal is to build a robot that can find and extinguish a fire in a house. The challenge for the entrants is to build a computerized (not radio-controlled) robotic device that can move through a model of a single floor of a house, detect fire (a lit candle) and then put it out. Robots that consistently accomplish this task in the shortest time win.

NextPrevious The Contest Course

NextPrevious Contest Tasks Sound Activation Furniture/Obstacles Return Trip

NextPrevious Contest Restrictions No disturbing the candle No entering rooms on return trip Size constraints –31 cm height –31 cm width –31 cm depth

NextPrevious Contest Scoring Best two of three trials Penalties –Touching wall or candle Bonuses –Non-dead reckoning navigation

NextPrevious CandleBot Overview — Design Build autonomous robot Capable of navigating floor plan Able to locate and extinguish candle Able to locate and return to start position

NextPrevious Conceptual Design — Side View

NextPrevious Conceptual Design — Bottom View

NextPrevious CandleBot Features Sound activation Solenoid driven CO 2 extinguisher Battery life display Onboard microprocessor control

NextPrevious CandleBot Hardware — Diagram

NextPrevious CandleBot Hardware — Sensors Three (3) Navigational Sensors Two (2) Infrared Sensors One (1) Optical Sensor One (1) Electret Microphone

NextPrevious CandleBot Suspension Two (2) independent motor-driven tracks –Allows for maximum maneuverability –Motors have built-in tachometers to determine real-time speed of each motor

NextPrevious CandleBot Navigation Three (3) Sharp™ Infrared Distance Sensors –Provides constantly updated distances to objects –Instrumental in avoiding wall contact penalty

NextPrevious CandleBot Software Required by contest rules Programmable PIC-based control system on board Must adapt to all conditions present in contest course

NextPrevious Software — Hallway Subroutine First algorithm in CandleBot operation cycle Demonstrates main navigation algorithm

NextPrevious Software — Room Subroutine Second algorithm in CandleBot operation cycle Navigates room interiors and extinguishes candles

NextPrevious Software — Return Subroutine Final algorithm in CandleBot operation cycle Searches for home circle and shuts down CandleBot

NextPrevious Closing Remarks Thank You For Your Time Any Questions?
