Motivation:
In short this robot was designed to navigate the Fukushima nuclear power plant and deliver led shielding to help block radiation from the radioactive core. If the led shielding was just a couple of led discs, the core was a padded box, and if the nuclear power plant was a stepped ramp with some curves. This was our senior design project from the UCLA mechanical engineering department. The complete build log with parts list can be found in the pdf below.
