I was going to participate in the National Robotics Challenge as part of my high school’s Engineering Team, which I lead until something happened. However, I made a tutorial of my robot so that the designs and code are accessible to anyone, and these are the 3D printed parts required to follow the tutorial linked below.
About
The National Robotics Challenge is held annually in Ohio, featuring multiple robotics contests of varying difficulty. This is specifically for the Robot Maze Contest, where a robot must autonomously navigate a 10x10-segment maze as quickly as possible. This robot is smaller than 7x7x7 inches, and it meets all other competition design criteria. It can basically be made out of parts from the ELEGOO Smart Robot Car Kit V4.0 alongside these 3D-printed components. Once fully assembled, the robot moves one segment at a time, using realignment and self-correction techniques to maintain accuracy. Check out the full tutorial on Github for more information.
