A-Summary of Project Proposal

(Based on your detail project proposal please fill in the Performa as mentioned below)

1. Project Title: MARS(Multipurpose Arm Based Robotics System )

2. Project brief: The project aims toward making a robotics system to get into peoples life
and make their living more convenient. The robot is supposed to work independently as
well as in team. The robot serves as a personal assistant to the owner with all its features.
This robot will help people in various activities be it general interaction [voice + text]
when bored/alone, sentiment analysis, informative facts fetching from Internet, Security
and Surveillance, Health Management for the entire family as per their age, gender and
Routine, remote monitoring and carrying objects from one place to another. Along with
this MARS will be a complete entertainment box full of stories, Jokes, Riddles, News and
some edu-tech features . The Master robot can be used independently for In-house usage
and for industrial one master is must with any no. of slaves to carry and place objects or
surveillance of entire space, path planning. Slaves will have limited and required features
only whereas the Master will be given features to serve all the above mentioned features.
The technical domains cover Computer vision, Machine Learning, speech recognition,
Augmented and Virtual Reality.

 a. The 3 slave and 1 master robot will be developed with one or more
MicroControllers in it, basic sensors like Heart rate detector, body
temperature detector, IR sensor, UltraSonic Sensor, Camera ,PIR Sensor etc.
Bodies will be designed and printed with the help of 3D printer. Mechanical
chassis and power supply would be required one for microcontroller and one
for movement and mechanical support.

(ii) Design Methodology

a. The design has to be flexible, strong and adorable. For that purpose
BLENDER Software would be used which has the best and user friendly
experience while designing and is free as well. Blender hives OBJ format
which can easily be used for printing. The body needs to be strong and able
to fit into a sphere. Outer body is going to be more like a sphere and inner
shell shelfs would contain the hardware units. The master robot is going to
get less physical and more intelligence power as compared to the slaves.
Slaves won’t be that much functional , but would be capable to tasks under
the guidance of master. Slaves would be built with heavy motors and power
supply to carry heavy objects and move easily. They’ll also have an arm
which can pick and place the objects. The communication between MASTER
and SLAVES would be done using XBEE module which has a range of 1km
for wireless communication. Ultrasonic would be installed in both the master
and slave to prevent accident and GPS to locate them at any time and for
security purpose.

5. Final Deliverables: 4 robots [1 Master , 3 Slaves] Master robot with features of Facial
+ Scene recognition + sentiment analysis, Information + General + Functional Chatbot,
Security Alerts, Note Making, Photography, Remote monitoring and entertainment
package. Master robot will have a display screen which will display the animation of
MARS’s eyes and expressions. It will also be used for information display and video air
text reading. Then the master will interact with humans as well as the slaves and will have
the features to coordinate with any no. of slaves and also to do the task secluding and path
planning for them on a uniform distant path graph. It will be programmed to command
the slaves and help them performing tasks in a more efficient way. Master robot will not
have any physical object carrying function it will look like a sphere with a screen roaming
around the house. Slaves are going an object picking arm and a sledge to keep objects and
move from one place another. Slaves would look like a rectangle with with wheels hidden
under the body chassis. Master would be enough for home as an assistant and slave can
be used in addition wherever a physical task is to be carried out.

 a. Design Student : Has a good experience working in Robotics and AI, Completion
certificate holder of Eyantra Robotics Competition organised by IIT Bombay [ AIR -
10 ]. Great Hands-on Computer vision and Image processing, NLP and Optimisation.
Won IIITD Hackathon too. Worked on imported MicroControllers like CC2650,
Maxim Sensors etc.

7. Project Schedule: The project has been split into three phases,this project starts
from building the artificial intelligence features like facial recognition and access control ,
Scene recognition and action required for it, for this either the python library or AWS
rekognition will be used directly. In the same phase all the 3 chatbot programs will be
linked to the robot server . The first phase will end up giving all the intelligent features.
In the second phase the body will be build and all the actuators and Sensors will be
attached to it . Some of the sensors data are to be retained for future references and
improvement in the robot Hence it will be connected to database for these purposes and
production level usage. In the third phase, integration of all the system to a scalable
server and performing all levels of testing would be done.

5. Project Methodology : There are various products like Alexa and google assistant in
the market but they’re of very limited usage. They don’t have vision, can’t move and are
very machinery product. Our project aims toward the HRI- Human Robot Interaction
field of study where purpose would be to create some relation between human robots by
making the robots behave anonymously and get into humans life like a pet.
Its features will serve the user with an assistant like activities including note
making, reminder setting, and actions on call. The concept behind this project
was to combine multiple devices in our home with just one little wanderer in
the house and which can treat everyone in a different way so that they don’t
need anything individually.
Today’s world is highly working on this type of device’s manufacturing and
working in the same field would be great, there are various designs of robots
like ALPHA, Samsung Ballie, Kuri etc which are observed and then figured
out a very endearing design for robots. Master and slaves will look different
as they would be having different functionalities. Master is going to be mostly
like a sphere and master would be like warehouse carries but more sneak than
them.
The manufacturing of robots body would be done from 3D printer and the
designs would be made by ourselves in blender.Also some support materials
architectures would be required for placing the objects inside robots and that
too would be done by 3D printing and modelling in blender. The Coding and
Platforms used would be python for server and heavy data/request handling,
google firestore or Mongoose Atlas for database and AWS Rekognition for
some of the features. The integration is going to be very simply because the
team has independently worked on some or the other feature and most of
them were on python itself. For validation and testing automation testing tools
like selenium will be used and for the early stages py_test or xdist can be
used ,lastly the alpha testing would be performed before final presentation.
