Project Description:
This academic project, conducted at the Robotics Club of Pulchowk Campus, focused on the design and development of an arrow throwing mechanism for Abu Robocon2021. The objective was to create a reliable and efficient mechanism capable of accurately projecting arrows within defined parameters, aligning with the competition's requirements.
Project Type:
Academic Project @Robotics Club Pulchowk Campus.
Objectives:
Develop a reliable and efficient arrow throwing mechanism
Ensure accurate projection of arrows within defined parameters
Align with Abu Robocon2021 competition requirements
Methodology/Approach Used:
The project was initiated with brainstorming and idea generation to conceptualize the design of the mechanism, exploring various concepts and possibilities. Following this phase, the components of the arrow throwing mechanism were designed using CAD software, ensuring meticulous detailing and precision. Subsequently, fabrication took place using workshop manufacturing technologies such as lathe and milling machines, enabling the creation of the physical components. Upon completion of fabrication, integration of the components was carried out, followed by thorough testing of the mechanism's functionality and performance. Based on the feedback obtained from testing, iterative refinement of the mechanism was conducted, addressing any identified issues or areas for improvement to enhance its effectiveness and reliability.
