Basketball Bot
Basketball Bot
A robot that finds a basket and attempts to put a ball into it
My robot is equipped with a servo on the front mounted with both a distance and color sensor to ensure that it has found the right object. Upon doing so, it will stop moving and send a signal to a second servo. The second servo has a container with a ball in it, which will then tip over to dump the ball into the cup or basket, like in basketball. There are many unique components that I had to assemble myself in the hardware aspect. Although I had a lot of troubling getting my servos to work, I believe there was a hardware error, this is a very solid prototype for a project that I would like to continue working on.
Awesome job combining your interests!
The ball carrier was really cool! I also liked that the robot got so close to the cup, but not too close that it got knocked over.
Its awesome how fast the bot moves!
Very quick and accurate, good
I like how fast and accurate it was!
I really like the idea of this! Nice Job!
This prototype looks very promising!
This definitely has a ton of potential!
It moves pretty fast towards the cup and stops nicely. Nice job!
I like how you intertwined you passion with robotics. I think it could be really interesting to maybe later down the line incorporate AI (Artificial Intelligience) and maybe make a robotic laucher. It could potentially learn as it shoots to make its shots much more accurate.
This is so fun! It would be cool if the next version allows the ball to launch up into the basket!
Good job improvising with LEGO pieces. and great project! I liked how you connected it with your passion. In the future I would suggest to test your hardware early on before connecting them so that you can come up with alternative solutions. I like the camera work too, showing everything that needs to be seen! Very clear! good luck
Cool idea
Love the prototype the next version could even have the ball get launched out.
I love the combination of materials and how you were able to use robotics in a way related to your favorite sport.
Very nice idea!
