Harper engineers Robot Challenge

Engineering students at Harper Adams were challenged to design and build a small wheeled robot which can automatically navigate around an obstacle course.
The assignment is part of the Control Systems and Mechatronics module for fourth year Agricultural Engineering and Off Road Vehicle Design students at the University College.
Students were given a standard robot kit but were encouraged to research different varieties of sensors, such as light and compass sensors.
