Instructional Robot Design Project

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around designing an instructional robot for use in universities and colleges, focusing on its capabilities such as carrying a robotic arm, climbing stairs, and utilizing video sensors for demonstrations in robotic control. Participants express a budget preference for the robot, with suggestions ranging from $5,000 to $10,000 depending on the institution's size and needs. Desired features include advanced AI for autonomous operation, quick environmental response, and the ability to communicate with humans. There is also interest in demonstrations that allow faculty and students to control the robot, particularly through wireless internet. The overall goal is to create a versatile educational tool that effectively showcases robotic applications in various industries.

"Instructional Robot" Design Project

Please assist me in answering some questions I have regarding my design project.

I must design a robot capable of being used as a demonstrative tool in Universities and Colleges for demonstrations in robotic control. This robot will carry a robotic arm, be able to climb stairs, durable, and also carry video sensors. This robot wil show how inspection robotics are applied in industries such as the Military.

Some questions I hope you can help me with:

1.) What would you, as a member of a university faculty, be willing to spend for an instructional robot?

2.) What demonstrations (as a member of the faculty or a student) would you enjoy seeing? Would you like to control the robot? If so, what would you make it do? Would you like it to have wireless internet control? Explain any features you would like to see.

1.) What would you, as a member of a university faculty, be willing to spend for an instructional robot?
Depends what kind of collage it is and how big the university is.I wouldn't want to spend anything higer then $10,000 maybe around $5,000 if it has everything I would need it for
2.) What demonstrations (as a member of the faculty or a student) would you enjoy seeing? Would you like to control the robot? If so, what would you make it do? Would you like it to have wireless internet control? Explain any features you would like to see.
I would like to see it not being controlled by humans and have good A.I and be able quickely respond to chages in the enviroment.I would also like to see it commicating with humans if it is possible.
 
Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...
I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
