Robot Climbing and Traversing Beam

Group

FIRST Robotics Team 1218 at Springside Chestnut Hill Academy

Date

January 2020-February 2020

Location

Philadelphia, PA

Skills

Fusion 360 CAD software, CNC machining, 3D printing

Objective

Build a mechanism for a 120lb robot to latch onto a horizontal beam and then traverse along the beam while suspended in the air.

Role

I was responsible for the development and assembly of this mechanism for the team-built robot.

Results

Consistent performance during competition in the Hatboro-Horsham FMA District Event for the 2020 FIRST Robotics Season (prior to cancellation of other events).

Reflection

Building this mechanism was the first time I got to lead a group through the engineering design process. In this process, I developed my skills in CAD design and gained familiarity with manufacturing.
