ADVANCED ROBOTICS
at UTSA
Self-Balancing Robot
As an educational organization, we believe that working on a variety of diverse projects, along with strong teamwork, is the best way to learn about robotics. We offer different opportunities under computer science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and project management.
We strive to enhance students’ professional development, leadership, and career opportunities through hands-on robotics projects and industry collaborations.
Objective
The project's objective is to build a self-balancing robot and learn the ins and outs of it. The robot will be 3D printed and will be controlled through an app on a mobile phone. This project is cater towards beginners and a great place to start.
Computer Science
The Computer Science section of the project will look into how the robot self balances and how it can communicate through Bluetooth from the phone.
Tools: Arduino code
Electrical Engineering
The Electrical Engineering section of the project will look at the electrical components needed for the project.
Tools: Arduino code
Mechanical Engineering
The Mechanical Engineering section of the project will look into the structure of the self-balancing robot
Tools: SolidWorks
