Mini Project 1

Design and Fabrication of a Robotic Fish


Point of Contact: Aditya, Kundan No. of Team Members: 2

Design a robotic fish in SolidWorks and then fabricate the same with the help of 3-D printing.
The robotic fish should have two revolute joints as shown in the figure below. Then actuate the
joints with servo motors such that it performs carangiform motion. The robotic fish must be
slightly negatively buoyant such that it is submerged just below the surface of the water, and it
should not roll around its own axis.

Deliverables:

Phase 1: Show the complete working model after connecting electronic components.
Phase 2: Demonstration of the capability of the robot in the water tank in the MICL lab and
measure the performance of the robot (straight path following, curve path following, maximum
achievable speed, and depth of operation).
Phase 3: Develop a controller for the robot to balance the rolling motion.

Deliverables:
Phase 1: The robot needs to be designed in any CAD software and a brief description of the
electronic components that are needed. What type of fabrication techniques should be used
and why?
Phase 2: Designed CAD model should be fabricated, and integration of electronic
components should be done.
Phase 3: A working model of the robot should be submitted in LAB. Robot should be
designed with a PID controller.
