Bomb disposal robot design
Third year duo project as part of the Embedded C for Microcontrollers module at University.
The aim of the project is to design and programme a robot to autonomously locate a 'bomb' (IR beacons), 'defuse' it with RFID once close enough, and return to the original location.
With no programming experience prior to this course apart from MATLAB, this module was definitely one of the most challenging across all four years. However, it was also the most interesting, and the crash course in C effectively gave me a sound foundation in coding and allowed me to progress greatly in the programming side of things in my subsequent projects.
