Development of modular robotic systems for education
PI: Dr. Ashish Dutta
Co-PIs : Dr. Anupam Saxena , Dr. K. S. Venkatesh, Mrs. Anjaki Kulkarni

Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, Kanpur 208026
Introduction :
• Active project based learning is more effective than passive lecture based learning.
- Design of robots is inter disciplinary.
- Visual, hands on approach.
- Robot design can be adapted to other subjects and levels.
• Use the motivational effects of robotics to excite students about science and technology
Objectives
• Development of modular robotic systems aimed at Indian engineering institutions.
• Modules can be used as per requirement for different applications.
• Hold joint workshops and competitions.
Hitec: Robonova-I This humanoid robotic kits offers educators, students
and robotic hobbyists a Humanoid robot package. (which retails for about USD $1400 ).
VEX Robotics• The Vex Robotics Design System is a robotic kit
intended to introduce students as to the world of robotics.
Lego Mindstorm The LEGO Group provides educational solutions
that allow students to learn as they play.
Disadvantages of available kits
• Cost $$
• Does not provide access to controller.
• Needs interfacing with software like Labview, etc.
• Self learning
In this project:Four types of robots to be developed(a) Mobile robots: three wheeled or four wheeled
(b) Walking robots: static and dynamic walking robots.
(c) Serial manipulators: serial arms with less than 6 DOF,
redundant arms.
(d) Robots for advanced applications: Students will be
encouraged to develop newer applications using the
modules and research.
Mobile robots developed in IIT Kanpur for education and research:
Modules:
1. Actuator module 4. Controller module
2. Sensor module 5. Wireless module
3. Power module 6. Control Software
- Motor (12 V DC motors with inbuilt gears)- Battery (12 Li ion / Lead Acid rechargeable battery)- Caster wheel (plastic mounted with rubber)- Wireless module (ZBEE module)- Controller : Atmega 16 micro controller
Wireless module : Zig bee transmitter + receiver
Other mobile robots developed
Omni directional robot Wall climbing robot
A stair climbing mobile robot.AGV : material transfer
statically stable biped robot
Biped robots that can walk on two legs
Simplest walker with only 1 motor
Dynamic walker : balance ?
8 DOF walker with dynamic balance
Advanced applications – research ?
• Multi agent systems using multiple mobile robots.
• Biped balance studies.
• Flying robots.
• Other mechatronic application.
