Weekk # 1: Planning my final Project

I want to build a guinea-pig Robot (or, in spanish "robot cuy").

Design features:

  1. Mobile robot with differential locomotion system. Maybe i can use the tamiya 70097 diferential Gearbor. Reference: Tamiya Gearbox
  2. Steering control. Lectures:
    • Mobile Robot Control on a Reference Path [pdf]
    • Mathematical model of differentially steered mobile robot [pdf]
    • A Smooth Control Law for Graceful Motion of Differential Wheeled Mobile Robots in 2D Environment [pdf]
  3. Controller by android device and PC
  4. Drawing capabilities (like a plotter in mobile version)

Working chronogram:

I made a Gantt chart to describe the work schedule.
