Didactic Robot Fish Kit
Project Summary
The goal is to …
The project requirements are:
Design, develop and build a fish robot for kids to start learning programming.The robot should have one degree-of-freedom and be actuated by a low cost RC servomotor.The controller must be chosen considering the simplicity of programming versus cost. All components must fit inside the robot body and the body is to be built using a 3D printer. The programming “language” should be adequate for kids.
Use a minimal number of standard batteries (four 1.5V AA batteries or one 9 V battery)
Create the project website to provide all information needed to replicate the robot (drawings, components, source code, etc.) in Portuguese and English, as well as instruction scripts with some basic experiments
