Summary

Objective: To design and build an autonomous robot that can successfully gather up to 12 legal size (yellow) fish from the three blue lakes on the track and deliver them to either of two fishing stations. The lakes also contain 4 undersized (red) fish which must be left in each lake or returned to any of the lakes. The robots will have a maximum time of 120 seconds in each of their four allotted trials. The robot must begin within an 8” X 12” X 10” high size limit but may expand to any size during a trial. An Exhibit Session will precede the robot trials.
