2. Self Sustaining Solar Power Robot Final Presentation Mason Drew Mark Nolan Wesley Varghese

3. Problem Objective Light-Seeking – be able to locate the strongest light source in the area and navigate toward it. Mobile – be able to navigate on a flat surface without obstacles. Monitor Energy – monitor the battery’s energy level at all times. It should know when it needs to seek more energy and it should also know when the battery is done charging. Solar-Rechargeable – once in a strong light source, the robot should enter a charging mode where it consumes very little power and stores the energy into rechargeable batteries. Self-sustaining – operate without any assistance from the outside world.
