17. Applications and Implications
propose a final project that integrates the range of units covered, answering:
It will be a smart carry-on suitcase named "SMART SUITCASE - The Follower Friend" - which will follow the traveller around automatically. It will be useful for travellers having physical health issues or for the people who have to carry lot of things at the same time while travelling.
A company named as 'Travelmate Robotics' have designed a robotics suitcase which will follow the user. They have used GPS for tracking the user location.
I will be using ultrasonic transmitter& receiver for making the suitcase to follow the user. I will be using 100 rpm 12v dc motors & one steering wheel. For now, I will be making suitcase using thermocol/foam.
I will buy Electronics components from local electronics shop. And I will get foam from our lab itself.
I will make the base on which suitcase will be palced using 3D printing. Also, i will make wheels & casing for PCBs using 3D printing. I will make electronics boards using PCB milling method. And I will make suitcase using foam.
Following processes will be used :
1.Computer Aided Design
2. 3D printing
3.Electronics Design
4. Electroncis production
5. Embedded Programmimg
Till now, I have completed electronics part and I have checked the circuit & embedded code on a ready-made 3 wheel robot. Next task to be completed is to design my own chasis, wheels & suitcase, 3D print the required parts, assemble them & test the circuit with actual final assembly.
