Roof Robot 3

In 2006 through 2008 two teams of students developed an all-wheel drive robot capable of traversing a variety of roof geometries while visually displaying roof conditions for a sponsor. Our team performed numerous enhancements on the previous years' designs in order to grant the robot superior traction as well as an improved range and mobility, allowing the robot to operate over the crest of a roof. A new microcontroller and Wi-Fi camera were implemented to allow for two way communication between the robot and a computer, and to allow for a reliable video feed. A single man operable ascender system was designed that is able to be transported in a minivan and able to allow the robot access to a second story roof
