The ChalkrBot was my team's Senior Capstone project, in which my role was overall system and mechanical design. ChalkrBot was designed to be a wheeled robot that acted as a freely moving sidewalk chalk plotter. Initially based on the Parallax BOE Bot, I designed a new platform from the ground up as the BOE kit was ill-suited for our purposes. The material was laser-cut 1/8" acrylic supported by aluminum spacers and steel bolts. The Arduino platform was utilized for navigation and control, supporting IMU breakout boards and an XBee shield for wireless interfacing.
