Robotics is a fascinating field of technology. Robots are
being used to perform special tasks where it will be difficult for people. Designing
a robot with specific features that aid the efficiency at work became a trend
in the field. Engineers started making robots inspired by creatures to mimic
certain abilities of them. Similarly inspired by insects our team engineered a
hexapod robot. A robot that walk on six legs.
This hexapod robot workshop is designed to provide a
complete hands on experience to the participants on building a hexapod robot
using micro servo actuators. All teams participating the workshop are given
training kits during the session to learn coding, robot assembly and motion
planning in a practical approach.
This
workshop will be conducted for 2 days (16 Hrs), with each day divided into 2
sessions.
The course content which will be followed
for the workshop is as mentioned below:
