---|---|
Tiger Bot is a humanoid robot project with the long term goal of creating a bipedal robot system capable of giving a tour of the RIT campus. Many previous versions exist, the latest of which is the lower half of the bipedal system. The goal of phase VII of the project is to assess the feasibility of continuing with the current lower body design. If the design is considered adequate, key system improvements will be identified and made. An upper body will be designed and integrated into the system. If the current design is found to be inadequate, key designs and components will be salvaged and an enhanced lower body will be designed and constructed. The primary metrics for success will be: the ability to balance and walk, a modular system robust to future improvements and the implementation of a computer/electrical system capable of providing the necessary inputs and outputs to implement contemporary bipedal control algorithms.
