I designed and built a compact pill-delivery robot intended to assist individuals who need regular medication but may have limited mobility or difficulty tracking dosing schedules.
The system was developed around a lightweight autonomous platform capable of navigating indoor spaces, locating its user, and delivering medication on time without supervision. I integrated multiple sensing modalities to give the robot a reliable understanding of its surroundings and implemented the core navigation and control logic from the ground up.
Through iterative tuning and testing, I refined its motion behavior, obstacle avoidance, and dispensing actions until the robot could operate consistently in realistic home-like environments.
Built an autonomous pill delivery robot that uses ultrasonic and infrared sensors to locate and drive to its user, and dispenses their pills.
Programmed sensors, motors, and autonomous driving in C++, achieving 90% collision avoidance.
Fine-tuned PID controls to ensure accurate turning when performing collision detection algorithms.
