36th Florida Conference on Recent Advances in Robotics
The development of a sustainable, environmentally aware and accessible robotic platform to be used in multiple applications is detailed. The robot utilizes upcycled components and serves as an economical and environmentally friendly robotic platform whose sensor loadout can easily be tailored for mission specific needs. The robot could serve as an intelligent system that might be applied to education, safety, environmental remediation, stewardship, physical impairment services, or in active sanitation applications. Some student projects using the platform are also discussed.
