Inspiration
Wanted a robot that could deliver "soft drinks" while studying late at night.
What it does
A robot that could dispense "soft drinks" and be interactive with users through facebook chat.
How we built it
We used a jetson board to receive information from the server that is connected to the facebook app. We also connected the jetson with arduino with a USB cable. The arduino is connected to stepper motor which elevates the arms of the robot to pick up the drinks from the vender. The ground movement is mainly programmed with a python script into a roomba.
Challenges we ran into
Programming a roombot. Using the jetson and arduino boards.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Using facebook chat api to talk to roomba to move.
What we learned
How to program Jetson TK1 Board and iRobot Create2
What's next for dormbot
GPS Localization where the robot can spot the location of the users and deliver the drinks accordingly.
