Our proposal is to create an autonomous unloading, loading and storage vehicle that will transport shipping container safely through storage yards.
Process:
General
• Floor plan/Scaling.
• Create the frame of the cart.
Robotics Course
• Create/install an input and output box for FANUC Arm.
• Create/install an end effect for the FANUC Arm.
• Create/scale the movement of the demonstration block and cart space.
• Program FANUC Arm.
Micro-Controller & Interfacing/Programming
• Setup Arduino.
