Forklift robot

Forklift robot

The robot whose single purpose is to pick up a ball and drop it somewhere else.

My robot uses image processing to scan for the color yellow and circular shapes. Once it spots a yellow object that is circular, it uses its motors to adjust until the ball is in the center of its vision. After this, the robot drives straight towards the ball, picks it up using servo motors attached to platforms in the front of the robot, and drives it somewhere else to be dropped off. While not all of these steps were always successful, I got it to work very well when the ball was in front of the robot.
