Flyering Bot

A multipurpose robot equipped with a basketball hoop, sensors, speakers, and flyering mechanisms to help with tabling!

Flyer Dispenser

Our robot uses a simple motor circuit to dispense flyers! A spring holds the flyers up, while a wheel is spun whenever the yellow button is pressed. The capacity is currently at 20 flyers.

LED Lights

Our LED lights are controlled by our Arduino module located inside the box of the robot. These LED lights display messages when a basket is made, or can also display messages typed to the mobile app. By default, it displays "Rush Theta Tau."

Basketball hoop and sensor

The sensor detects when a ball passes through the hoop and signals the arduino to play the congratulatory message. Arduino will light up the LEDs and play a sound effect.
