Misuro Robotics™ - Welcome to Misuro Robotics!

Welcome to Misuro Robotics Website!

You are probably wondering by now what is "Misuro". Misuro stands for Mini-Sumo Robot and it is a robot designed by an SDSU student team. The team members are Dani Haddad, Brian Bautista, Edwin Hernandez, and Shane Childress.

The general purpose for this project is to act as a senior design project where students apply and integrate the different skills that they learn as they finish their educational program. It is an extensive project that requires many skills.

The project itself is a small robot that obeys the American mini-sumo robot challenge rules. Its most Notable specs are that it has to weigh 1.1 lb maximum and be 10cm x 10cm. Read full rules here.

Project Proposal

Our goal is to build a contest winning Mini-Sumo robot at an affordable price and in accordance with the mini sumo rules and regulations. An initial cost and analysis estimation was needed in order to move in the right direction. Compiling these estimations also assisted in the decision process for what parts to use and order. The research conducted for the cost and weight assessment gave us a great foundation for our robot as far as knowledge of operation. Appendix A is our cost assessment that lists each component and its corresponding cost. Appendix B is our weight assessment, it is in the dame format as the cost assessment but with each component's individual weight calculated into our total weight estimation. One of the heaviest components is the type of motor; the right motor is imperative for success.
