Realistic Constraints Engineering Standards and Modern Engineering Tools

Realistic Constraints, Engineering Standards and Modern Engineering Tools for Senior Design Project: Ro. Sco. E: Ambassador Assisting Robot for Armstrong Hall Senior Project Presentation Mike Di. Meo Andrew Specian Advisor: Dr. Wang 1

�Our goal is to design a robotic solution that will capture guests and prospective students with engaging demonstration Project Overview 2

�Safety! �Multimedia interaction �Arms used for body language �Facial expressions �Speech output �Custom body for aesthetic purposes �Powered mobile with safety sensors �Real time senior project poster display �Expandable Design Requirements and Features 3

�Robot Safety: ◦ OSHA[1]- Robotics �Awareness Barrier Device �Presence Sensing Devices �Emergency Braking �Audible/Visual Warning �Controls that initiate power or motion are constructed and guarded against accidental operation. Standards 4

� Economic: ◦ Budget Limit ◦ Saving over 2000$ by reusing existing parts from conducting robot projects � Environmental ◦ Reusing material from previous project (conducting robot base) ◦ Frame well designed – no excess metal ◦ Aluminum – recyclable � Sustainability ◦ Designing robot to be robust and expandable �Code will be able to be improved upon �Room in frame to allow for upgrades Constraints 5

� Manufacturability / Constructability ◦ Constructed of aluminum, which has great machinability ◦ Joined via TIG welding/bolts ◦ Adhesives used for foam skin (exterior) � Ethical (and legal) ◦ Safety is a design priority ◦ Programmed to not harm humans � Health and Safety ◦ Ultrasonic position sensors to prevent collision impact ◦ Kill switch ◦ Insulated Electronic System � Social ◦ Responsibly represent the School of Engineering though our project via its ability to interact and appearance. Constraints 6

�ANSYS �Solid. Works � 3 D Printer ◦ Arm components �TCNJ Machine Shop ◦ Arm components ◦ Welding frame Modern Engineering Tools 7

�Arm Materials ◦ Weight/Strength �Perform basic engineering analysis �Use CAD to confirm design �Two General Design Approaches ◦ Short with single monitor for display ◦ Tall with dual separate facial and media display �Poll the SOE via Qualtrics Design Decisions 8
