Project Progress – Water Filling Robot

As the week progressing, we have already think about about robot design which will be present at the end of semester. After a lot of suggestion and consideration, we finally come out with the first draft of our robot. As it function is to filling the bucket with water and close the water pipe when the owner busy doing other work, this robot is named Water Filling Robot.

The improvement of our robot is still in progress. However from what we have done this week, it seems like it still need some modification on it body frame and design. We have take some pictures for you to see:
